Those who bought convertible tops, where did you get em and how do you like them?

[Caldwell]

Yeah that's right, the whole bloody question is in the topic.
I need a new covertible top, badly... as in, now as a matter of fact.

so I need to know those who have replaced your tops,
where did you get them? and what do you think of the ones you got?

I had ordered one from 5.0resto but canceled my order to confirm it's where i wanted it.
JR told me to go to http://www.soft-tops.com/ but they haven't emailed me back yet.

So I would love some vert top feedback.
Thanks peeps.

I got mine from tops online. Good quality and fast shipping.

i took mine to a top shop, they replaced the whole thing, including glass for 500. took 2 days and i didnt have to do anything. well worth it, excelent work and top looks perfect

I took mine to a shop and they bought a cloth one along with the glass and installed it in a day for $950

texas mustang....top was great quality and installation was easy.

I do appreciate the input gents!
very much.

I got a ridiculous quote so that's why I'm somewhat skeptical of taking it to a shop...
they wanted $1400...
and for that, it's not worth it, almost worth installing it myself.

i'll let you know what happens.

sorry bud, i have no info, for you cause the top on mine was replaced before i got it, bit i can say that i like the material mine is made of alot. it is a cloth top from electron tops ... i think it is called stay-fast.

1400 is rediculous... definitely DIY if you can't find MUCH less

Before buying my 'vert I called around to a lot of places to know what the going rate was for a top installed in case I found my dream car and it needed a top...

Long story short I was hearing $950-$1000 out the door with a glass window...

Keep making calls. I called mainly upholstry shops...

Ok, 1400 is ludacris. www.cal-mustang.com - Robbins authentic quality warrantied tops - I believe they're around 180 plus shipping. Now the window should run you 250 if you're buying it from the installer - I paid 500 after buying the top for the new window (w/defroster) and to get the top done - shouldn't pay any more than that.

Beauty, thanks tripleblack
lookin at them right now

I've decided to start calling around for install prices...

I will update this momentarily
If i can buy the top...
install shouldn't be THAT bad
