HM outsources this work. Look around, you may be able to find someone to do it for a little less cash--especially this time of year. Go with glass. Robbins makes a good replacement top.

I replaced my top with a Robbin's top. Fitment and quality is great. I believe it's about a grand for labor + price of the top so I did the install myself.
