Johnnys top shop did mine for about $550. They did a pretty good job and it took about a day. He should be pretty good at it since I think mine was either the 2nd or 3rd top he's done. He's by Love's bakery by middle street. Look him up in the yellow pages.

I ordered the Haartz cloth with the vinyl window. Want it to look original just like the looks and the wear of the cloth. Also like the fact that the window is bigger (allthough I seldom have the top up anyway)
