I got my top from Robbins.

I must admit the second time around would be easier, but I still wouldn't want to do another one!
I met another Boxster owner at a coin-operated car wash who said the same.
Piece of cake once you know what you're doing. He even offered to help me with mine, as in for free. Which made me think that it couldn't be very time consuming if a total stranger, however helpful, was willing to do another. I checked out the operation and fit of his new top and it looked 100% factory tight.
