Default Recommendation of Softtop Installer in SoCal

Hello Everyone,

Well, the insurance company totalled my S after I slid through some bushes and ripped my top.

So, I need a new one, everybody seems to think a Robbins is best, and that EZon is the same thing, just another brand. True?

How about a recommendation for a good installer in SoCal. Anywhere is basically fine. I just wanna make sure they do it right.

Thanks

Go with OEM, they don't cost that much more and it is worth it

i have the eXon one and i have no complaints. Works great and it was only $450 shipped on ebay. The install was a bitch though. Took me 2 full days. Expect to pay $500 -1000 for labor is you dont want to do it yourself

yeah, the labor is a bitch. Mitchell's guide shows 9.5 hours for an experienced installer. The previous owner of my car decided he and his friend could do it. Took them two days, and it's a crappy job. I'm definitely having somebody who's done it before, do it this time
