I bought an EZ-On top on ebay a few years ago.  Fit perfectly and looked gre=
at right up until the day I sold the car. =20

I installed this top on my rolling wreck '72 a few weeks ago.  I believe it c=
ame from Victoria British.  It also fits great and looks good.  It's probabl=
y an EZ-On top.  I have a Robbins top on my Cadillac Allante.  They generall=
y are considered to be a step up in quality.  The price sure is a step up.  :=
-)

A zip out rear window would be great, but they do cost more.

I got a top with a zip out rear window. It was a pain to install, but =
not unlike most tops I guess. However, the top is only 3 years old and =
the rear zip out window has come unsown from the rest of the top. The is =
no way to close it. I asked at an upholstery shop and I would have to =
completely remove the top from the frame to get it sewn back together.  =
Black duct tape looks crappy on a tan top.=20

I would vote against the zip out window.

I put an economy ($150) ebay top on my Miata some time back.  The quality
was good and the top functioned perfectly.  The car stayed under a carport
and the top was down 99.5% of the time when it wasn't under the carport.
It was perfect for me.  If you don't have covered storage
or if you want a more expensive top there are options but the economy stuff
is functional and practical, in my experience.
