I noticed that several sites offer very good quality canvas tops for 3-400 dollars..and the OEM is 1000 or so. Has anyone ever used the less expensive ones? If so, do you like it?
Thanks for your help!

I bought mine from Cabrio World, the original German canvas. It looks exactly like the top that was on my car (inside and out), which I assume was the original. I installed it myself (which I'm not sure I would do again). I'm very pleased with it.

STRONGLY recommend you DO NOT buy it from these folks. Good fabric but poorly made.
