depends on what you want to do - You can get a good pinpoint vinyl top without a window for $145 plus shipping several places - Key Auto top brand usually - which was fine on my 1988 years ago - I did not replace the rear window and it lasted fine. CJ Pony Parts in Harrisburg PA has always done good by me - great prices, great service, great people. If you need the back window curtain I suggest getting a glass one for a bit more money. You would also want to get the pads, cables, and so forth if yours are getting worn. I just had one installed on my 1993 in the most expensive way - canvas with a glass window with canvas rear curtain. Most local upholstery shops will charge $500 or so to install a top with the pads and cables, etc... and they will charge about $1000- $1300 for an EZ-ON name brand canvas top. You can buy canvas kits many places for cheaper. I happen to have a new 1991-93 EZ-ON CANVAS top in my garage with new cables, pads, etc... but no rear window that I am not using - I cannot bring myself to install it. Good luck!

well i dont think i need the window the one that is in the car is in good shape. everything seems to be in good condiction except the top has a few small holes in it. basicaly i just need the top and i was just wonder where i could get the vinyl top. and if that was wall that i needed.

so if i just buy the vinyl top i could just put in my old glass from my old top? i can install the top andeverything myself.

I know some people have installed their own tops but it seems to be a job best left for a professional.

I am getting my new top, back glass, pads, cables, weatherstripping and a headliner kit installed right now. I am being charged 450.00 labor.

I believe the top, back glass (tinted plastic), pads and cables cost me about 300.00 or so.

The headliner was another 100.00.

yeah, you can use the cylinders and pump...I would recommend changing the fluid,,,,not a easy job.
