I'm in the Detroit MI area. It's a shop that I have used for over 25 years from time to time. He said it does not take very long but I have to remove the top so that it sits flat on the machine. I did the same thing like in the 90s with a Miata top at the same place, think it was about the same price back then. I remember that one because it was riveted in the back and I was in some uncomfortable positions drilling those out but he would have charged me like $400 if I just brought the car and I am cheap and love doing the work anyway. If you pull your top off and want the name of the place I will be happy to give it to you in a PM. I love convertibles and have 3 in the garage right now.

Local upholstery shop did mine last year after mine split also. I did a glass rear window with defroster/ plug and play. The new top also came with the interior liner that the S comes with from factory. Here in the northeast US it cost me $1800 out the door. Came out great

DrCactus,

Check around local wreckers for a replacement top. Go on car-part.com and do a search on Boxster roof. I found a complete roof assembly with an aftermarket replacement canvas (I think it's GAHH) with glass window. Wrecker sold it to me for $500...



Just have to put it on now! That being said, my current top is in very good shape with a plastic window that was sewn in after the fact. If you can wait a few weeks, I would be willing to sell it to you once I get the new one on. Here's a pic of the old roof:
