Re: Who has replaced their defective tops? And which vendor?
Nope. Delivered to Michigan in 2005 and shipped 2 weeks later to Atlanta. 2 years as a Chrysler Corporate lease (a Chrysler employee drove it, gratis). Then I bought it from a Chrysler dealer in Columbus, GA. with 10K on the clock.
Not good enough, I was told.

Hi Max, I replaced two tops . . . Put a dark blue top on my SSB SRT6 and a black top on my black SRT6.
See photos of SSB here: https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...tml#post811303
The tops I bought were made by Electron Tops and installed by a local upholstery shop. The upholstery shop charged me $700.00 for each of the tops + installation. I am VERY satisfied with the tops and the overall result.
New Replacement Convertible Tops
Note: When I went to purchase the second top I tried to buy the top directly from Electron Tops (thought I might be able to save a few bucks) but was told they only deal directly with upholstery shops and do not sell to the public. Quite a marketing strategy . . . Go figure . . .
They'll need your old top (less the rear window) to retrieve the molded plastic pieces to sew into the new top.
When you look at the color chart on their website, you'll want to look at the Haartz Sonnenland Fabrics section. That's the top of the line German fabric as used on high end European cars . . .
Good luck . . .

Thanks, Dog.
I just ordered from M&T Mfg in Rhode Island.
Item "A":
https://www.convertibletopguys.com/c...sler-Crossfire
It will be made by EZ-ON Auto with a lifetime warranty on the glass.:

It has a plastic J strip that is bonded. Alaxfire and I will install.
I tried Electron, but was subjected to attempted rape by 3 local installers. Would have been $1400+for a 2 hour job.
Go figure.
Thanks for your help, buds.
