Thanks for the questions, and for the potential customers, i appreciate it. I primarily focus my installs and recommendations on the Robbins branded tops, with my personal recommendation on material for cloth. It gives the S such a nice look, and is an improvement over the OE vinyl. The EZ on and other tops are frankly a hassle and not worth the minimal price difference to justify and feel good with the recommendation. I've done some installs with customer provided tops where I wasn't engaged prior to the top being purchased and what a nightmare those have been. Fit and finish isn't the same, and you really get what you pay for and the shortcomings aren't easily overcome by even the most experienced installer. Plastic to glass, no problem, frame swap, early AP1 to later AP1-2, etc. All of this while the customer waits. It typically takes 3-4 hours to complete.
Send them my way.......****note, my wife and I are having our second child on Thursday so schedules are a little full at the moment, but should be back in full action shortly, i hope!

Unfortunately you have to swap out the entire top and cannot just replace the window. A robbins brand top, with the stayfast cloth is roughtly 640 + install.
