Installing a Robbins Top for Your Convertible - Part One, The Removal

In the first of a two-part guide on how to remove your old convertible top and install a new Robbins top, we dug back into the S2Ki forum archives for this comprehensive step-by-step guide written by forum member Cyclon36. Part One will show you how to remove your old top. Part Two will show you how to install the new one.

This post is worth so much. Probably the best post so far by the curated content editor.

Someone told me labor is like 20 hours to replace a soft top? That's nuts. Is this a joke, and what if you find a like new used OEM top, still 20 hours?

I have seen people claim to do it in 8 hrs or less on YouTube, 20 seems extreme.
