Top replacement brand - advice
I have been looking at replacing my top. It is a 2003 base.
The glass does not heat anymore, the tops is worn with holes here and there. Does not leak yet, but it does not present nicely. I have been looking around and came across those sellers. Does anyone have any experience or heard of their product quality? https://robbinsautotop.com/convertible-tops-416/porsche-446/porsche-boxster-2003-04-top-canvas#additional https://www.autotopsdirect.com/product/porsche-convertible-top-2003-2004-boxster-german-a5-canvas-black/ https://gahh.com/porsche-boxster-2003-2004-convertible-top-glass-window?srsltid=AfmBOooi2pO5uw3VZOtdnmvuYOTcAdOafYb ZIx_MPzWxAy6t1eKQCO8D I have a feeling all of them are the same, but maybe there are other sources I am not aware of. I am located in MI. More exactly Lansing area (48864 zip). Thanks in advance. |
Are you planning on replacing it yourself or are you using a professional installer?
IF you're using a professional to install your new top, (as I did) then I suggest you let the installer suggest which top to buy from their experience. In my case, my installer suggested the brand he had installed many times with great results. He suggested the GAHH brand and that's what I bought (w/glass+defrost wires). I know many replace their tops as a DIY project, but I decided that I didn't want to "learn on the job" and pay a professional to just get it done and very glad I did. Dropped the car off in the morning and a few hours later they called me to say it was ready....easy-peezy....lol. My suggestion.....IF you decide to use a professional. Make sure they have experience with Boxster's top replacements (pictures or recent customer reviews of their Boxster work). |
I like Rob's posting.
All three brands have been around for a long time and they wouldn't have lasted if people had bad experiences. The Boxster community is pretty quick to share bad experiences. If you are thinking of doing it yourself, enlist someone who has done it before. |
