That's a great deal, you lucked out. Edder B, when I bought my top the company (www.autotopsdirect.com) sent me an email with installation instructions after I called them and requested it, which really helped. If you do a search on here Mike Focke has instructions and photos on top replacement. I used Pelican's too, so I had 3 different references for installing my top. I have a few wrinkles in it that I think I can correct, it's really not too bad of a job if you take your time. Mine actually turned out better than I expected and I saved about $750.00 in labor.
