You can also get the cheap tops from eBay but good luck getting someone to install it. When I called around about installation and asked about bringing my own top I was told that unless it was a top from specific resellers they would not quote me for the job and would charge straight time or not do it because there were too many unknowns. Book time for a top is 10 hours. Yes some people can do it in less time especially if not their first time. The math maths.
I'm ignorant about the process. 10 hours? That's crazy. However, I bet your new top looks awesome, and it will last forever in your climate. Maybe you can post a pic of the completed look. I could be inspired, lol.
