To replace the top on a 1989 Cabriolet, first, ensure the car is parked in a shaded area and gather the necessary tools, including a screwdriver, staple gun, and new fabric top. Begin by removing the old top by detaching it from the frame, carefully prying off any staples or fasteners. Once the old top is removed, position the new fabric over the frame, ensuring a proper fit, and secure it in place with staples or the appropriate fasteners. Finally, reattach any trim pieces and check for proper operation before securing everything back in place.

Very simple fix. Just remove the two screws you see on the latch. That will remove it from the top. Replace with the new one and you're good to go.

The Cabriolet is what the called the Cabrio before. The Convertible is the style of the car. It just means the top comes off. Hope that answers your question. Cabriolet is the french word for Convertible. It's my undersdtanding that post 1995, the model Cabriolet became Cabrio.
The easiest way to get to the top starter bolt is with 12" extension and a 13 mil socket. You have to feel your way between the solenoid and the block. You can only take the starter off from the top if the engine is on a engine stand
