Retrofit Glass window top on eBay... - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

That's funny I was just looking at this top on fleabay the other day. As some of you already know I ripped a 7 inch hole in mine. Due to my dumbass forgetting to chop the window before opening! Anyway let me know if this is a good item and how many hours of install it will take if I bring it somewhere professional to do it. I live in Walnut Creek(San Francisco area) California. So if anybody knows of a person or shop that can install this for me??? Thanks in advance guys!

My GAHH top has no rubber molding around the window..it is flush. When I called Cabrioworld last summer they said they get from GAHH, however that may have changed now as you say.

I don't like the quote "If it separates it will happen early." Makes it sound like all they have are the old bad ones from GAHH. I haven't heard of once instance of the new GAHH tops separating. Make sure if he is going to warranty the top he will also pay for a 2nd installation if it goes bad. If not you'll end up paying more money than the GAHH and have a real pain in the ass.

That's good advice.

According to him, this top is not a GAHH top, it's a Robbins top.

I believe Robbins Top gives a 5 year warranty on the top. Doubt they will reimburse you the labor cost.

GAHH paid for my labor costs and sent a new top a year after my original purchase because of their factory defect. As far as I know they haven't had any more defects since the original release. This is why I would go with a trusted name unless they have as good of a warranty as GAHH.
