Replacement soft top?

dinx, Nov 30, 4:40am
DP has a 90's Suzuki Cultus and at some stage eventually the old soft top is going to need replacement, its showing its age so is always left up "just in case" it splits or tears. Are there any places in NZ that specialise in replacement tops?

I know he could import one, and thats one option but was curious if their are any NZ importers with a good reputation?. He thinks it could be cheaper to ship one here in our summer when is US winter if prices drop for their off season? Any suggestions?

Buy one from Ebay ex USA (if they're available). Make sure to hunt forums etc to check on quality before buying, and check what downloads etc are there from the seller in terms of instructions for installation, read thoroughly to make sure doing the replacement is within your capabilities.
A project for the future is soft-top replacement for my wife's MX5. Not an easy job, but there's no way I'd buy a replacement top at local prices.

Thats kinda what we were thinking. He has said if they made hard tops for them like MX5's he might have done that instead. Mainly its out in the weather and not garaged as much as we would like, garage door needs replacing too lol, its split worse lol!

MX5 would be one of the easiest tops to replace and should take less than half a day. There is a lot of variation in the quality of tops available

AA Best from USA. Ordered and got my last top through them for about 1/3 of the same here in NZ.
