I just bought a top off of ebay. Haven't got it yet but about 5 minutes after i won the bid i had a call confirming the order and to make sure i wanted it in black. Nice to know that they have customer service. Ill let you know when i get it and have it installed.

Most definitely guys. Ill try to turn it in to a tutorial too. I really didn't think this was going to turn this many heads.

id like to know, as well. i hate my tan eyesore

I got a good price on a complete top, Mechanism, motors, fairly new top and headliner.

The only prob was it was tan.

So I went to autozone and got a couple of cans of Duplicolor black fabric spray. Two coats and 3yrs later it still looks good.

did you remove the top, or just mask off the rest of the car? i may do that this week if its lasted you this long...

Sorry it took so long for a reply. I just noticed your question.


We had the tan top mech. out because we had just picked it up from the junk yard but we could have masked it off and got the same results.

The previous owner on my GF's spyder had installed an ebay top. The top is pretty good quality. Thick material. No light shines thru.

However, I dont know if it was the installation or what, but there is a slight gap at the top of the windshield and the top that rain sometimes gets into the cabin. I tightened down the screws all the way and it still not fully sealed.

Electron is a very good brand to get. They fix/give instructions on how to fix defects that factory ones had.

Have you double checked that the hooks are going into their receivers correctly? I had mine tightened down pretty well for a while and it took me months to notice my drivers side hook was only catching the side of the hole and forcing the top backward an 1/8 inch.
