Re: Checked on GAHH site & glass window cab tops still made & available. FYI . . .
So, I pulled up my really old links from when I was looking to replace the plastic only (a few years ago).
Rydon Auto and Glass came recommended then from 'someone' (that info is long gone).

They can get the GAHH A5 black with plastic window for $865 + shipping and their total cost is $1,375. This means that their installation is $1,375 - $865 + shipping or ($510 + shipping).
I can get the same top from GAHH's website for $849 w/free shipping - they are fine having me order the top.

$849 + $510 = $1,359 + tax.

Another provider (Willow Grove Auto Top) quoted me $2,475 for the same top installed.

Obviously I need to check out Rydon's current reviews/info, but that's pretty much a no-brainer to me. I watched a few of the DIY installers and quickly realized the video's s were closer to fantasy/science fiction for my skillset.

I'd be a little afraid of the $299 version on eBay (in addition to not wanting the vinyl material).

So now, in my typical manner, I'll continue to analyze this forever before pulling the trigger.

Anything I may not have considered?
