FS: Meripol Blue Soft Top, Complete

[MalibuBill]

Meripol Blue Soft top, complete assembly, for sale. $750.00 obo plus shipping. Removed from 2002 Boxster where it was original to the car. New plastic window was installed by Doug Alexander of Elite Interiors on 9/20/2012. He does the replacement work for many of the local Porsche dealers including Rusnak and Downtown L.A. The top is in very good condition. It was removed from my car today, 8/3/2013.

The top will be crated securely should you need it shipped and will be sent by a freight carrier since it is too big for UPS. The crate is ready although if you are in the Southern California area I'd prefer that you pick it up, or, depending upon how far, I'd consider meeting you part way.

This color looks great on my Lapis Blue Metallic car and looks great on Arctic Silver cars I have seen. I know it fits 2002 and I think it fits all Boxsters up to that year (and probably even 2003 and 2004) but please verify that on your own as I'm a shade tree, home mechanic (at best) and not a parts guy.

You may phone between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. PDT at THREE TEN FOUR FIVE 7 Twenty-Six ZERO one. I hope that spelling at least slows up the bot harvesters.

Thanks.

Looks like I might have over priced it. So, price is $500 plus shipping for this genuine Porsche complete top. If you're in SoCal I'll consider meeting you halfway somewhere for delivery

Guess I'm asking too much. I do not want this top and don't really have the room to store it until the right buyer comes along. So, let's see if anyone is interested at $300. The shipping is likely to be $200 or more so I'll say plus shipping, thus, suggesting that someone here in Southern California purchase it.

The top is presently on ebay on a buy it now basis at $399 with the "offer" option. I am definitely NOT encouraging you to buy that way, BUT, ebay does offer a means of calculating shipping if you go to item # 261270273990. Plug in your zip code and ebay will compute the approximate shipping.

My guess earlier of around $200 is WRONG. It will be between $250 and $300, possibly more on the east coast. I don't ship stuff by freight for a living nor an avocation. My apologies for the error.

Yes it has a liner, as supplied by Porsche. The top is original to the car. It will fit 1997-2002 (and 2003-2004 although those years have glass windows which is why I installed a considerably more expensive 2003 top (with $400 in shipping alone) on my car to replace the 2002 top I'm selling.

SOLD 9/3/2013

Today I removed the rear seal and replaced it with one with a small tear, which does not appear to have any effect on leaks, noise, etc. The seal spent a few weeks in my car on a glass top I installed on the car with no problems. Since I have not sold the top I swapped the seals (a new one at a dealer is probably around $130 but check your own sources). I don't think you'll need one. I've listed the top on ebay with a $300 buy it now price indicating I will NOT ship it.

Shipping is too expensive and is a hassle for me and any potential buyer so it is now available for local pickup only. I'll help you put it in your station wagon or van or truck within 1 1/2 miles of Zuma Beach.

The price has been reduced to $250. New pictures, depicting the 1/2 inch partial tear are in the ebay listing:
