I'm not sure I understand this question. How do you install a MB 500sl soft top? Are you asking how to replace an existing soft top? Are you talking about a European 107 model or a later 129 model MB? The later 500sl's, made until 2002...if you have to ask this question, you won't be able to install, what I presume to be a new, replacement canvas top. You need to go to an upholsterer...you have to buy the top, and then pay for them to install it. This is pretty much an all day event and can cost anywhere from $750.00 to $2,000.00 at the dealers...avoid the dealers...they just send them out to local upholstery shops and mark up the cost. Or, if you just want to take the hard top off, and use the convertible top..remove the hard top and pop up the boot cover. Now, if you''re talking about a 2003 and later 500sl...and you can't find the soft top, that's because there isn't one...all there is back there is a fold down hard top that fits into the trunk.

Installation of Mercedes 129 soft top?
you don't want to try this yourself. its hard enough for professionals to install a 129 soft top properly, and if you've never installed a canvas top before, they are a nightmare...trust me on that. These tops also have an inner liner. There is far too much intricate concerened areas to do this yourself. And at the end, you'll probably ruin the new soft top, and never get it installed properly...and for the $200.00 it will most likely cost you, it's worth it.
