Pulled the trigger on a new top
Well, I finally decided to have a new top installed on my 1998 Boxster. I'll be replacing the almost 20 year old (original) top with a new GAHH black cloth with the glass rear window. The old top looks decent enough but is no longer taught, has same wear spots and the rear plastic window, while still clear, flaps around as I drive. So it's time. I figure the top has served me well and 20 years is a good long life.
I located an installing company that has done lots of Boxster tops and does much of his work for a couple of local Porsche dealers in the area. It's important I use a experienced shop. I did some shopping around for price and (for the Chicago area) they seemed to come in at a price that was in line with others ($1,750 top and installation and tax..."out the door").
Anything else I should know, look for or expect?
