I'm quite capable of doing a fair amount of stuff, mechanically, on my '94 convertible, but I must say I have never been so frustrated as when I tried to replace my top. Even with good instructions it is a bitch, and don't even think of attempting it without an industrial grade upholstery staple gun. Eventually I limped into a shop with the top mangled and half installed. My first abject defeat as a shadetree mechanic.
My suggestion is buy a quality top from a reputable internet source, such as cartopguys in NE USA, but take it to a professional for installation.
