Are you talking about replacing the convertable top? If so, I don't think it's a do it yourselfers job. I had mine replaced a year or so ago. It cost me about $400. I guess there is sewing involved.

Dealer replaced mine under warranty and I watched a little. Nothing I'd tackle by myself.

Not sure what you're asking.

Cleaning is DIY, weatherproofing is DIY but a pain, replacing the top is not. Leave that to the pros.
