I second this! As I let it sit all summer and then hurried it through about a month ago. The more recent rain has proven it isn't nearly as sealed as it should be lol. I'd appreciate some help that's actually done this before and avoid the upcharge of a shop wanting 8hr on tidying up an already installed ( less tha optimally ) top.
Thought I'd have the time but the new job is killing my free hours so I'm mostly just frustrated and spent.

Are you still doing soft top replacements? I tried messaging you, but your folder seems to be full.

^^^ Did you try Convertibles Only in Seattle? I'm sure they aren't cheap but maybe worth it.

Yikes. I haven't researched the average labor cost on this. Seems a little steep?

@roscoe was last here on 10-7-18 (over 3 years ago).

$2100? Replacement Robbins roof should be about $700 plus labor. Skilled experienced installer can do the job in less than 3 hours. The trick is to find the installer, the roofs are easy.

The quote included the price of the top, but still, $1,400 in labor is a bit much for something like that. I'll just have to keep looking.
