Default C2 Removable Hardtop Weight

I'm in the process of arranging shipping on a hardtop I purchased and could really use the correct weight to nail down the shipping cost.

Can someone out there let me know what it weighs??

Thanks in advance

Default About 100, or less

I see that someone has listed one for shipping on U-Ship, and they show a weight of 90 lbs. That seems about right for mine, though I have not put in on a scale.

49#, i`ll agree to that as I figured my 62`s at about 50. I know its no where near 90 unless its a crated weight as I take it off and put it on by myself. .....
