Top for my TR8? There are a lot of options, a wide variety of prices. I have never bought a top before so I need some recommendations
 
Well do you want vinyl or canvas? If you want canvas thye fade in time and well stitching can caise issues witht he rear windows so you need ot have allowances for installation to not make them too tight. I know of a bunch of places and prices go from $200 up $700 depending on which you want. Also if you want to coordinate a color theme then you have more color choices with canvas.
 
I have a canvas top. I ordered it special as I wanted, and got, a blue one.

I much prefer Easy On versus the Robbins, but that's just me.

The initial top I received from Easy on had the center wrap section glued in one inch to far forward. I shot some images and laid out the corrections, and they changed their records, built me a new one and sent it to me for free.

The service & pricing form the Tops-Online guys was excellent.

JMHO but Robbins has been my "top of choice" for a few decades now. The six year old one onna Spider STILL has a good, clear rear window here in Florida sun. MG's and Elans too.
