Default Soft top replacement

Hi all,
I'm looking to replace my soft top. I'm leaning towards buying a honda factory top to keep the car original. Do you guys know anybody who can help me do the labor? I would be willing to pay a fee of course. Any suggestions for local help, or a reputable shop would be appreciated.

Infinite Motion in San Marcos is the only shop that I trust. Look for Gavin, Barbara, or Robert. All very good people and extremely knowledgeable about Hondas.

I've had mine replaced by Bernie's Auto Upholstery. I'd recommend them. I use Infinite Motion for everything else. Amazing family and shop

For $1350, Bernies in Lemon Grove is a fair deal

I'm a tinkerer though so I installed it myself, took me close to 20 hours but glad I did it. (I went with Robbins cloth)

Infinite Motion doesn't do soft tops. I personally think Rockstar Garage in Riverside is the best installer in So Cal, he installs a handful of S2k tops a week and knows them very well.

Do you what the install fee runs if I ordered the top? Or do they sell top and install? Thanks!

I did replace it. I ended up purchasing a factory top and had a local shop off convoy replace it. My car is in close to perfect factory condition, with 10k miles, and I decided I wouldn't be happy with anything except oem. It turned out great. Thanks everybody for the recommendations.

Would you mind telling me how much it ended up costing with factory top and install?
