Soft top replacement with small glass window
Has anyone replaced their soft top on their 996 with the one being sold on ebay that has a glass rear window? My top is showing some wear and I like the idea of the glass rear window for security and for a cleaner look. Thoughts?

The original material used for the top is German A5 canvas, such as sold by GAHH. The material in that eBay listing is something else. I would spend a little more and get the OEM material. The choice between glass and plastic is a personal choice. Glass is a few hundred more. I went with plastic because of the much larger window size, but others have gone with the glass.

I had them replace a piece of the leather drivers seat at another time. They do great work. It's a small shop and they pay a lot of attention to detail. They do a lot of high end cars.
