Default Soft top replacement

Anyone know of any good places to get a new soft top installed (Halifax) ? I figure I'll eventually have to do it myself but I figured I'd check and see if there is any places locally that do them.

Did you ever find someone to replace your top? I just bought a new Robbins top and was also wondering if there was anyone near Halifax for a top replacement.

I spoke to an S2000 owner over the weekend who had his top done at Apple on kempt road and was very happy with it. I'd say they'd be at the top of my list. They did my windshield and I was very happy with them. Keep me in the loop on what you do please

How'd you find that job? If you went back would you do it again or get someone to do it for you?

The top came with instructions, and I pulled other DIY guides from this site so everything was well documented.. I'd do it again.

It was stressful at first, removing/cutting the top off the car but overall it wasn't bad at all.

You will want time and a garage to do it, had to take a lot rear trim and seats out of the car.

Not sure what an install would cost at a shop, but I would be curious to find out.

I was thinking it'd be a good job to do in my garage while she's stored for the winter. Could take my time and do it right.

Just tagging on to this - does anyone have their old tops kicking around that would cut it up for patch pieces?
