There are many suppliers of Convertible tops that you can find via the internet. Costs vary depending on how fancy you want to get from perhaps $200 to as high as $600 for the materials.

Installing a Convertible top is not a trivial endeavor. you have basically three options:

1) Do it yourself. It can be done by the avaerage shade tree mechanic but it is a painstaking process to get it just right and if you have never done it you may be biting off more than you bargained for.

2) An Auto Upolstery and Top shop - Most times you can find an Auto Upholstery and Top shop that will do it for you. The good part of that is they will do it for you, it will probably come out right the first time and it will likely come with a warranty- if it isn't right you can make them totally redo it. All that comes at a price. Remember to check the BBB and see if they have references


3) An Independent installer- This will save you $$ over a typical Auto Top shop. To find someone ask some local body shops if they have someone who does tops. If a repair/ restoration place or an autobody shop is willing to recommend someone they are probably OK.Good luck!
