I'm looking for a convertible top for a '69 Sprite. Any recommendations for who makes a good one that fits well?
 
For the 69 we carry cloth and vinyl tops made by Robbins Auto top.

Both are types will be on sale till next Friday 5/4/12.

I have heard mixed reviews on the ease (or lack there of) of installation, since the Aamco tops have disappeared, these are the best fitting ones we can source.


Personally I have not fit one of these - anyone with experience on this particular top?
 
Due to my own stupidity I ruined a perfectly good top on my car and got the new Robbins vinyl top. It fits well and looks good-it was reasonably well priced,I much prefer the vinyl to the cloth. I did not personally install the top,I have a friend that is in the auto/boat upholstery business and the job came out very well.
 
Can't speak to the fitting of the Spridget top, but I put one of the Moss (Robbins, I believe) tops on my MGB last year and it fit well. As Matt pointed out, they're on sale right now.
