Great discusion guys and much appreciated, even if you do get a bit carried away I am not anticipaiting needing a top soon but appreciate the info. In Fl sun the big thing is window and what we boat ownners use { insin glas } may be too stiff for a 107 top. If mine is a true example the M B tops sure hold up well. Mine looks new and I believe it may be original , '88.

Here's the cheapest yet.
$189

eBay Motors: mercedes benz convertible top SL 72-89 w107 w plastic W (item 220337333898 end time Jan-09-09 15:51:21 PST)

Aha! I think it might be vinyl, not cloth.
That would look cheesy indeed.

Update: the seller confirmed it is vinyl @ this price.

Hmmm. That is like putting cool whip on Baked Alaska.

But who knows, maybe it doesn't look bad....

Maybe it wouldn't look TOO bad, but you'd have to wonder how long it would last.

Some things are just TOO cheap.
