Which Miata top to choose?

When it’s coming to which replacement top to choose, it is difficult to get an unambiguous recommendation. In addition to the original top, there are a lot of other companies manufacturing Miata tops, and there are several styles and varieties to choose from and it’s hard to say that any single brand is better than any other. In addition you have to choose wheter you want a top with plastic glas or real glas, and even No-Zip glass window tops are an alternative.

What will a Miata Top Replacement cost you?

Costs are of course dependent on whether you want to hire professionals to do the Miata Top Replacement job for you, or if you do it yourself. Hiring a professional is usually expensive in all contexts, but the advantage is that you get professional results. When it comes to the costs of actual top, it varies a lot depending on whom you’re buying from, the materials used, how it’s equipped with plastic or real glas and Zip glass or No-Zip glass. Right now, a quick search on Ebay gave rates that ranged between $179 and $349. You may also be fortunate to find a decent top from the aftermarket, which you may be lucky enough to buy very cheap.

Doing a Miata Top Replacement yourself?

You’d think that such a task was too demanding for one without special expertise. But the truth is that because of all the information and also installation guides you can find on the internet, a Miata Top Replacement is something most Miata owners can manage on their own. But I will definetly reccomend you to study at least one installation guide before you at all thinking of loosening a single screw, so you don’t go ahead and ruin the paint on your car or the new top of itself.
