Mercedes Benz repair: Convertible top repair, luis somoza, plastic windows


Question
I may be buying 93 500 SL in Charlotte, NC that needs the plastic windows in the top to be fixed. I was wondering if I would need to replace the entire top, or if I only needed to replace the plastic windows?

Could you let me know what I should expect to pay, and where other than a mercedes dealership I could take it to be done?

Thanks,

Luis Somoza
