Sierra Auto Tops & Seats Convertible Replacement for Mazda Miata MX5 1990-2005, Cabrio Vinyl, Black, incl. Rain Rail

The top looks great on my 1996 Mazda Miata. It'll take you a while to get the sucker on - maybe even turn you into an alcoholic in the process as you sweat, swear, and squeeze your body into the tight compartments of the small Miata finagling around to install it. I think it took me a full day to do this project. There were some points when I had to walk away because I was going to burn the mother down... The only thing I didn't do was use contact adhesive as I attached it back together. I don't drive it in bad weather so felt this part wasn't necessary (maybe I'm wrong, oh well). I couldn't fit the small metal brackets back on that go near the area above the door handles / just off where the seat belt area is...don't know how to describe them (Picture attached). I don't really notice any difference with them not on. It did take a few days to be able to fully close the top. I left it out in the hot Vegas sun, covered the front area with a tarp, and put some ~ 10-20 pound dumbbells to keep tension on it. It's actually pretty quiet driving around when I had to have the top up twice on a recent road trip due to bad weather. While I did get rained/snowed on, the top is water tight and there were no signs of water dripping through the material/osmosis occurring or any type of those shenanigans. The material appears of great quality and the clear/plastic window is a very good gauge material that I can't see tearing any time soon. I even got an extra piece of vinyl in my order for some reason. Thanks... I opted for this tan color being that my car color was based off the M-edition special paint job (but the factory installed top was black). Everyone who sees it likes the color contrast. Living in Vegas though, I rarely have the top up. :) I would buy this top again. Will put some photos up when I get back from my road trip.

Facile à poser si il fait un gros soleil la toile est bien mais sa ferme mieux au soleil

The product came very fast and on time. My sister installed the top for me. It took a good eight hours. Make sure you put it out in the sun to stretch. It’s a lot of work, but turned out great. Great product I would recommend it to anyone.

It’s a great top and a great value, compare and see. I’d recommend ordering it with the rain rail attached, yours will be roached, and it eliminates a huge headache. Took us 5 hrs to install and was relatively straight forward though there we no instructions included. It took about a week to stretch out, despite all days being over 100 deg.

The quality of this top is great. It looks and feels like the original top I replaced on my son's 1990. I changed the color of the top from black to tan on his original red Miata. The tan looks fine. Let me say this is a very tough job for a beginner, but we did it. The online instructions are very vague, almost worthless. You will have to go to youtube to watch several videos. The upholstery shop we visited gave an estimate of $600 to replace the top. We said what the heck, let's try it. We are pretty handy and it took us about 15 hours all together. I am not sure it was worth the $400 we saved but the time we spent together will make memories. Let me give you a few tips if you are going to install it yourself. Number all your parts for right or left side when you take them off.Do not drill out the front cable rivets, just remove the crews holding the spring at the rear and let the cables hang. When you install them on the new top use a coat hanger making a hook on one end to thread them through the new top. There is plenty of room to carefully guide the cable and spring through the opening. I ordered the factory installed rain rail with the top. It will save you from riveting the rail to the top but you will have to work from the inside of the car. Removing both seats is a must for access. There are only 4 bolts for each seat. An old original rain rail will break when you remove the old top. The new rain rail is not very flexible so it is hard to line up the holes with the bolt studs so use a hot air gun to heat the rain rail so you can line up the holes. Hot air gun is $10 at Harbor Freight. When we were done the top would not close, so we put some weight on it overnight. Loosen some of the bolts at the rain rail to give you some slack and then close the top. Have fun (Ha Ha) and enjoy your new top.
