That looks really sharp :cool: Question, was it standard on the factory top to have the rear window with a rear window defoger? Was just curious.

AL, the top was $550 shipped from Kanter...but i would really recommend buying from some place else, because they forgot to include the front windlace in the kit, and they won't send me one to go with the top and the pads wouldn't fit.. yea i'm very :mad as for the install, he took his time and it was about 5 days spent on it...average around 3-5 hours a day. canvas doesn't stretch..trust me, i helped! it was very very tight...if i had to do it over i'd go OEM vinyl from AL Knoch. but you can't beat the look of that Canvas!
Dwayne...i don't think a rear window defogger was offered on C3s...i'm not sure on that. :cool:

That top is just what I have wanted. Is this top the same material as on the C5s? I have always thought that the black tops on the c5 would look good on our c3s.

Eddie, it is basically the same canvas material as the C5s. i've been getting alot of compliments on how Black the top looks...then people are impressed because the darkness is due to it being canvas. the vinyl blacks just don't look as black.
