So, where did everyone buy their new roof from? Ebay? softtopguy? etc.

I'm looking to buy one at the moment, but not sure where the best place to buy one is.

edit: Will edit the OP as I find more places that sell.

Whats the rush? At the moment there isn't a thread that has a list of vendors who sell softtop kits.

There's no rush (hence why the thread hasn't actually been closed yet) ; however, this topic has been discussed previously more times than I could ever care to count.

I'd love to hear peoples opions on different
sellers and products and even some pictures
of the roofs they bought from different
suppliers. I'm planning on buying the stayfast
cloth roof from topsonline but I'd love to hear
peoples opinions on the difference between that
and the denim factory standard product they sell

The differences in the tops has been discussed previously too. Robbins is the best fitment, and hardest to install. Ez on top is easiest to install very good fitment if you get the straps right.

The best material is the canvas, it's higher quality, blacker and is the same fabric used on Ferrari and Porsche tops.

Topsonline is hands down the best dealer on eBay. They modified the Robbins top due to an issue I had with an early make top and replaced mine under warranty with minmal fuss. The new roofs are reinforced on the Robbins top, to prevent the bows wearing the fabric along the seams.

Just listen to ferrari, he knows which roofs are good.

Topsonline, buy stayfast cloth Robbins brand.

http://www.topsonline.com/index.php?DepartmentID=100&CarID=6900&CarmodelID=746000

going from that though, the difference in price around $250ish is not worth the difference in 'quality'.

Either brand will last just as long if taken care of properly IMO.

I would buy the EZ-On without the demister

I ended up purchasing a stay fast cloth haartz top with a glass window for $600 au including postage which was the best price i could find. Im still waiting on it to arrive. Can anybody recommend somebody to install it in victoria? Prefrably somewhere close to geelong if anybody has had it done down this way?

Thanks guys
