Default Going Topless

Now that I have your attention---Do any of you convertible owners have any suggestions reguarding replacement material for C-4 tops. I have a 91. A previous owner has already replaced the orignal top with a canvas top. I have no idea how long the canvas top has lasted, but the only real reason it needs replacement now is the clouded rear window. Prices vary a great deal between canvas and "original" type tops. The glass window (94 and up) top is quite a bit more expensive and the conversion kit for the window is about $250 all by itself. So the plastic window tops can be replaced twice before the price of one glass window top is reached. Better yet, does anyone know where a hardtop can be found?

If the only reason you want to replace the top is because the rear plastic window is clouded, there is some product that will polish it out, not sure what it is, maybe make a separate post asking that question.
