I am looking for a shop to install a top on my convt. mustang, but I do not have any idea where a good shop is or where the bad shops are in the Houston, TX area. Any suggestions good or bad would be greatly appreciated.

I havent done it myself, but I've read that it can be done youself relatively easily... you might wanna do a search on teh web on how to replace the top... might save you a couple bucks

I used to live in Conroe off of 830 in Seven Coves. Totally off the course of this thread, but I've never seen anyone here from that area.

I live on the North side of Houston, and the car is not my primary vehicle, so the drive doesn't effect me if its good work.

Try to see if you can get with TNT on this one. She has a beautiful car and knows where to go for the good work and decent prices. Other than that, just shop around. If you ever go to the track, ask some people.

I replaced my top around mid June of this past summer myself. It wasnt the funnest job in the world but it can be done by yourself and a friend. I saved about 400 doing it myself. If you do it yourself just note where everything goes. All you really need is standard handtools and a staple gun. If you can get one of the Upholster staple guns get one because they work much better than the standard electric or manual ones.
