new convertible top soon... help


i need to replace my top soon and i am starting to look around and i was wondering if there was a brand that i should look for or if there is a specific material that is better than another. If it is possible i was looking for the material that some of the 03, 04 cobra verts have, if anyone has any information for me that would be a great help.

thanks

sigh, there is a better material but it slips my mind right now......

it's more expensive, but doesn't absorb and redirect heat as much

Just find a custom auto upholster and see what they recommend. Mine was replaced literally like 3 days before I bought it from the guy. It has this very nice material. I deflects rain and heat very, very well. And it also is very good at keeping noise out.

+1 Find a reputable trim shop in your area that can do it. Check around with some of the better used auto dealerships...
