I have debated back and forth with myself on whether to install a new top myself or source it out. I am leaning toward sourcing it out. Any suggestions for a good installer in the NY/NJ area? I had one guy price me 1400 vinyl, 1800 fabric.

Woah that is way to much.

You can buy a brand new vinyl top for under 200 bucks and its easy to DIY
