Default '86-'96 Softtop R&R Instructions Needed

I didn't have much luck during my search here on the forum.

Also any tricks, tips, watch out for's would be appreciated.

I got an estimate of about $350 from my local vette shop to R&R. Am I better off having them do this and save me the headache.

Thanks,

Chuck

I have an Ecklers video on restoring the interior, and it includes replacing a convertible top. They make it look easy, but I doubt it really is. The car they do the work on is a C3. If you want to borrow the video, email me.

:hurray: Outstanding :hurray:

Those instructions along with the video should be the thrust I need to tackle this puppy myself.

Thanks guys,
