You really cant buy one and put it on yourself, and even with a new top, the car will STILL leak, they leaked when they were brand new, I have all the service records for my vert when it was new, and everytime the lady brought the car into the dealer, it got checked for the leaky top. A top will run you installed anywhere from $850+, I have heard of people paying upwards of $1500 though.

A company called Robbins Top makes them. I believe they cost around 600.00+ shipping. Im planning on buying too. A local rx-7 shop owner just had one installed, looks like brand new. He said labor to install was about 300-400 bones...

If yours doesnt leak, then it must not rain in your world. I have yet to ever hear of a vert that doesnt leak. Unless you went to some painstaking measures to insure leakfree operation. Brand freagin new they leaked. You telling me that after some nice rain, that your carpets are BONE dry?
