Hi All

I am looking to replace the soft top on 97/8 986. The plastic has cracked and is no longer translucent.

It makes sense to me to replace with a glass insert as well.

I am looking for recommendations on where to purchase and what brand to replace it with. Also what I need to watch out for eg what material brand, sound proofing and especially proper fit.

Whilst looking for a good deal , I am not looking for the cheapest as I would hate to have wind/water/noise issues. Also are any better than others to install.

So far I have had a look on ebay

EZ ON Porsche 986 Boxster 97-02 Convertible Soft Top & Glass Window Black Cloth | eBay
and Pelican parts.

Will need to ship Australia.

Regards

Bruce
