Can you replace a vinyl top?
Replacing your vinyl top is best done at an automotive upholstery shop (or even a body shop). On most vehicles with a landau top, the top vinyl layer can be replaced by removing the molding and clips that hold it in place. You'll want to save the molding and clips, so you can reuse them on your new top.
What was the point of vinyl tops?
Vinyl roofs started out early in automotive history, going as far back as the 1920s. They started as a necessity because, well, cars needed roofs to keep the rain off of the occupants. Vinyl was used to replicate the appearance of a movable top, similar to one on a horse carriage.2017-06-19
