I really don't want to do the glass upgrade because my canvas is spotless. I've taken very good care of it with Raggtopp treatments and cleanings. I'm also not crazy about the limited access of the glass retrofit. I've searched for an OEM unit from a dismantled car but those go fast and the canvas is rarely in as good a shape as my car. I also prefer the far wider visibility of the plastic window. My plastic is crystal clear. I'd rather put the $1200+ for a new glass top and labor towards major maintenance like suspension, clutch or new wheels, tires, paint touch ups, Nav, etc. I've done top replacements on other cars and they don't always turn out perfect, things get loose requiring fiddling every time you lower or raise. I'd rather avoid all that.
Maybe I can find someone to do the plastic swap for a recession buster price.
