I was thinking that the top could be removed with the frame intact.
I agree that if going to the trouble of removing the top from frame then a new top should be installed.
Does anyone know a supplier that would provide me with a patch of material? I'd love to preserve the MB interior design if going this route.
Or perhaps someone has replaced their (Tobacco?) brown soft top and has the old material...?
