    Cabrio replacement top recommendations

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I've tried search, but didn't come up with much. I have a 2009 A4 B7 Cabrio and the rear glass is separating from the top. I've gotten an extra year out of it with 3M sealant and re-attaching the glass, but it's separating again and I've decided it's just time to replace the top. Does anyone have any recommendations as to which brand/supplier? I'm looking to replace with the Sonnenland acoustic cloth, as the sound factor is important to me. I plan on having the local upholstery shop do the work, but they're okay with ordering through my requested vendor, or letting us bring the replacement top in.

    Did they give you a quote on fixing your current top? Are there other issues that make you want to replace the entire top?

    Dealer quote was 6700.00 to replace entire top. It's my understanding that the top is one piece with the glass heat bonded, and it cannot be fixed. I have been "patching" it with 3M window sealant adhesive for the past year. I can reuse the existing headliner, etc. and I have a price online for just under 1000.00 for the top-of-the-line replacement. Then, it's labor getting it put on. I want to be sure that the Robbins Sonnenland fabric was the better to use, or if anyone had a better recommendation...also if there were any vendors much better than others. I'm looking at topsonline.com.
