However, one can find replacement tops for around $500 with a plastic window. Around $700 for the glass window top (with the defrost wiring harness).

The drawback to the glass window tops is that the glass is shorter so it can accommodate the folding in the pre-03 Boxster.

Unless your top is in really good shape otherwise, I'd consider getting a new top. I'm going to have to do that sometime in the next few months.


(the tops I mention can be had from topsonline.com)

FrayAdjacent, do you have any recomand shop in Bay Area California?

Nope, I live in Texas (thank God!). I'd recommend checking with Robbins:

www.robbinsautotopco.com for their recommended installers.
