Is there a write up that has instructions on how to replace a convertible top for my 1996 mustang? Thanks!

 

Jeremy,

I have checked what I have and have not found anything. My advice is to let a professional take a look at it. The ongoing problems if it is not done right (leaks, misalignment etc) are not worth the hassle, also, I know of one guy that did it, the first time he dropeed the new roof, the rear glass shattered

 

as james said its to much of a risk the smallest little bit can make a big/all the differance in a leak occuring either right away or further down the line id definitely allow a proffesional to do that, you dont want to risk it

 

It depends on if you just want to do the top or if you want to do the piece with the glass in it as well. (For those who dont know, it comes in two seperate pieces) I replaced the top on my 96 by myself but I only did the top part. There really isn't a whole lot of ways to have it leak except for at the very front of the roof (whre the latch is) jsut take your time and do a good job up there and there wont be many issues. I am very happy with my results and would do it all over again if i had the choice. I will say however it was a PITA and it took all day. Pm me if i can be of any help but i dont think i have instructions. However the place i bought my top from copied the pages out of the shop manual and sent them with the top which helped alot, though they were a little confusing at first. I'll try to take some pics of mine so you'll see that all my seams line up and everything. It was definately worth the money i saved.

 

Sweet! Thanks..
