I actually found an upholstery shop nearby that specializes in Porsche convertible tops. They've done this conversion many times apparently and have their own source for the conversion glass window tops with a lifetime warranty on the glass.
The whole job was quoted at $1,400.
I don't think I can do much better so I made an appointment.
I'll let you know how it turns out.
That sounds like a fair price, I was quoted $1,800. for a GAHH top with the glass window, or $750.00 labor to install the top I bought. I did it myself and it turn out okay except for a few wrinkles that I may take care of at some point. In hindsight I should have went with a glass one.
