if your fitting an entire frame and rag top then about two or three spanners (possible used more then once!) the hard part will be getting the correct amount of shims to make the roof line up and close properly. make sure you count how many are in there on your old roof first.

If your fitting the fabric to an existing frame then it is sort of difficult but not impossible if you are very patient, not done that myself but seen it done, unless you are competely skint i would get someone else to do it cause if you buy a new rag top and rip it yourself $$$$$$ :wan: If you pay someone it shouldn't get cocked up!
