I'm not sure what you mean... I just did it. Cost me $350 for the top and a few bucks for two-sided automotive tape. Took me ~6 hours, following instructions you can find on the internet. I'm no mechanic, and I've never even owned a convertible until a few months ago.

I'm like others here... had it cost more than say $1k, I would have saved the cash to put towards a Zeintop.

I'm not like most others here in that I decided to skip the glass option even though it was less than $100 difference. The aftermarket glass is pretty small, which causes 2 problems, IMHO:

1. Reduced visibility (already mentioned).

2. Uglier lines around the back of the car. It just doesn't look right to me.
