Arrow $1400 for a convertible top!

Okay $1400 for a new convertible top is outrageous. (I have a 1993 LX). I can spend around $400 to do it myself. What do you guys think is the best way to do a new top? Is there any good ideas if you did a top? BTW I live in mercer county PA so if you know any good places around here please let me know. Thanks everyone.

In the same boat. What I have read here and there. Don't do itself. If 1400 I will have to. Also a 93

I have a 1991 that I'm replacing the top with.. so far I'm trying to find a place that wants to replace the top cheap (I have the new top with new glass and all). Anyway, I'd say try not to do it yourself, I'd rather get it done by a pro who knows what he's doing.
