IMO it's worth the money to pay to get it done.

I have seen a few cars LHT has done and can vouch for their quality. I did my own to save some money. Now that I have done it I would do it again. The hardest part is figuring out what all has to come off and how to get it off. It took me 6 hrs but I saved enough to justify my new wheels. Good luck.

I have done 7 of these installs anywhere from 2-4 hours.

The best place to order the top is topsonline.com around 500$(there is no difference in quality between robins and oem. the ez on is the worst one i have installed and still not bad prefer robins.. all of them have a 5 year warranty)

there is no need to take the frame out that is just making extra work for yourself which is insane

pm me if you are interested in having it installed i will do it cheaper than anyone else if you order the top.

If you do not know how to work on cars this is one project i would not attempt half a day can turn into a weekend and alot of headache just a heads up..

you know, to bring up an old thread. i was in touch with topsonline. and they told me that the ezon and robbins use the same HAARTZ cloth. and that the robbins has better quality. but each meet a minimal standard. i then found this site

http://www.convertibletopguys.com/index.ph...egory/view/1011

and they have the stayfast material which is what i want for 649$

topsonline wants 867.00 for their stayfast in the robbins

im wondering how much worse can it be? im saving 200$! anyone have any input on that?
