Hey all, a new Celica owner reporting in here at 6gc looking for tips and advice on taking care of my first ever car, the '97 25th Anniversary GT. I was lucky to come across it on Craigslist and fell in love with it immediately. But however, it has sustained some wear and tear over the years - pretty much all only cosmetic, and I'm looking to tending to them in the near future.

I want to start with getting a new cloth top for the El Nino winter that we're expected to have here in Texas. Before I pull the trigger on buying a cloth top from eBay (all I can afford really), I was wondering if anyone can share their instructions PDF or whatever help came with your replacement top. I had read on here that some people got them with buying a new top, but am unsure if the one I'm looking at would, and also to see how much work I'll have to do to install one.

I did hear it was a two-person job, but I have no idea where I would start without these instructions, apart from knowing that it's a two-piece design that can be done with glue and a stapler gun. Any advice is welcome too, and thanks in advance.

Unless youve done it before and you know what your doing you wont speed up. If you want to do it. I can sort of help. Take your time. Dont go fast. Usually new tops come with instructions
