Default Convertible Top Supplier?

Do you folks have comments as to the "best" source for a convertible top for the '68?
Anyone have the DVD from Al Knoch?

I bought my top from Al Knoch and have been well pleased with it since the install. I don't know what kind of top you are looking for but I went with a Stay Fast top. Stay Fast is the material that the tops on the C5 C6 are made out of. On my car I think it looks like a tuxedo jacket. I am very happy with the top.
