Thanks for the reply "Luv2box", one question did you install it? And if so, how easy or difficult was it?

No I don't have the tools or space to work on cars anymore. I found a local upholsterer that did the job for $400 and it took him eight hours.

I appreciate all the info guys, I've found an installer locally but he's asking for $750 to install it. Seems high to me, I'll check with some other shops even if they are a little farther. I think $400-500 is the range I want to be. I'll continue searching for an installer and keep u updated.

Yep, call some more shops. If I remember right, mine was around $450 for installation.

Bruce I'm curious whether you know if the replacement glass tops have a bigger back window then the stock Porsche glass window?
