Has anyone have their soft top replaced by a local shop for a reasonable price? And no, I don't want a hardtop, thank you because I brought a convertible. I've read the DIY and I don't have the time nor inclination to replace the top myself. Mahalo.

PS. anyone here have the EZ Brand soft top from topsonline? It's not the popular Robbins top, but it's like $200 dollars cheaper.

i think kent-k can chime in. they replaced theirs with a robbins top.

yea ask kent. i would try to spring for the robbins top. i have not seen the EZ brand but the robbins top feels better then oem. by better i mean thicker.

yeah we bought the Robbins. it's is a hell of alot beefier than the OEM. it was rather expensive though. also make sure you order all the other rebuild pieces as well; rivets, elastic straps, etc.

we went through Fred's auto top shop. it was done in one day and was around $1600 including shipping and labor.

^not too bad, the oem would have cost $800 for just parts, and labor would have killed through the dealership

Kent: Thanks..I'll get the Robbins top....I'm at an impasse. I love this car but I'm seriously considering getting something more practical. We'll see. Thanks all.
