Just finished my first top install....on a 2004 350Z Roadsterwe acquired back in late July! I hadn't planned to do the top right away but as we drove the car and exercised the top, it started to develop holes and tears too big to ignore.
It took me a couple of days but was very straight forward. Removal time for old top was about 2-3 hours. Install took about 6 or 7. If I was doing another, I'd estimate 1.5 hours to remove and about 4 to install.
The top had 18 rivets to drill out and replace other than that, top was screws and double sided tape. Some tugging was required but nothing that ever made me question the top or my install. The top looks nice and tight and I'm pleased with the result.
My 2000 Boxster S is next but I may wait a week or two...
