Dude i think you have to buy a whole new top because that glass has to be pressed into the top itself. My buddy owns a local upholstery shop and thats what he told me when i asked if i could purchase the glass and top seperately and have them delivered

well, it is true that it can be installed separately, but it's not the greatest idea because of sealing issues. I mean, if i was in your place i would definitely just buy the glass and have it installed w/ the top that's on there, but that's not the BEST (most expensive) way of doing it. you might not find a whole lotta shops willing to do this for you though
the shop that was going to do my hole top and glass quoted my 900 for everything and labor, and it was 300 for the glass....i'll install anything on my car myself, but i'd never attempt to do my convertible top myself
The glass is built into part of the top, which is seperate from the main piece of the top. The place that did my top said they had to take the whole top off to install that glass part.
They have to remove the back section of the top in order to "tuck" the skirt of the rear glass panel under, then they button it back up. They don't remove the entire top.
