    Update of the Vert













    Put in rear headrests but silver headrest in good condition are so hard to find. Those are the only ones I have found and they are all distorted. Also put on ellipsoids and new top/new tension straps last December. The PO had a bra on the front leaving oxidation so I need to get it detailed to get the hood all one color. Nothing new, I just replaced the front struts with new Sachs-Boge struts. Oh yeah I just got the A/C recharged so I am ready for summer. New OEM CD changer is on the way also!

    Looks clean. How much were the elastic straps to get redone?

          Thank you! I did alot of research and made many phone calls. I also bought the top for $350. It is the german sonnenland material (oem) and then I got it installed for 185 + 35 for the tension straps. So the total cost was $670 dollarrs, not bad.

          I bought the straps from here:

              Yup, believe me I called around for a week and that was the cheapest. Everywhere else was asking 1200.

                        I've never done one before. I like to think I'm mechanically inclined though so I'll be giving it a try myself... thanks for the luck lol might be needing some.
