Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello, I tried searching around pelican and different forum, and can't find any instructions. Does anyone have access to instructions? I found reasonably priced replacement canvas on ebay, but am not sure if its something that can be considered a DIY. has anyone try replacing the soft top themselves? How much work is involved? I planned to do this over the winter when the car is in storage Thanks! /G

It is labor intensive (obviously). Shops here quoted me anywhere from a one day to one week job depending on their experience level. There is a Porsche workshop manual that covers the soft top and I would not consider such a project without that. Something to keep in mind is that a shop installed soft top will have the labor warranteed. I've already used this when one of the cross rods detached (which they are apt to do apparently.)
