In the same situation as others, looking for a quality top with glass.

Came across this site: https://www.convertibletopguys.com/convertible/790/1997-02-Porsche-Boxster.

Which have a top replacement guide and install tools for $34.95

From reading their site it did bring up questions with regards to the tops being sold at extreme prices, are these "GAHH Look alike" tops with re-branded names actually GAHH tops that did not pass inspection and then dumped on the market via the eBay and other sellers?

Not saying they are bad tops, could be that the stitching was out of line or something simple that just did not pass QA, or it could be something more severe.

I guess my question to the group would be:

Is it really worth buying a $800.00 top for $500.00 and then pay $900.00 to install and after find issues. I guess if you were dealing with a company like above where return was no issue and you were installing yourself you would just be out of your time and effort, but if paying someone it could get costly.
