Convertible Top Replacement

[GoKart]

Who has replaced a convertible top?

Mine is shot. Completely.

It needs to come out and a brand new one put on.

I have a manual top --- have any of you replaced your cabby tops?

Did you use the Ebay-bought tops? They have so many options at different prices, I don't know what I need to buy.

Any help? Thanks.

I did it with a pelican top. Its a pain in the ass, and you should let someone else do it.

How much was the top?

Where did you buy it? At Pelican?

And how long did it take you?

[devonjordan]

I did it at a leisurely pace over a three day weekend, so I dont really know how many hours I put into it. I bought it at pelican parts .com, and I can't remember what I paid, but I did find out later that a friend of a friend could have done it for 300 which was cheaper than the top.

Hrm - Ok. Thanks for the info.

Anyone else?

I had mine quoted to do a brand new replacement including labor for $1700

Labor doesn't matter to me because I will do the work myself.

I just want to know what the top itself will cost, and roughly how many hours I should expect to spend doing the swap.
