Start with this thread. It will come close to answering all of your questions. http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=19099&highlight=vinyl+top
if your going for an all original resto i'd do it but personally i think they look better with out it. the biggest issue is that they hold water like a sponge and rust out the roof right along the top of the windshield. i have a few spots to weld up since my car used to have the half top, but i pulled it off last summer.
