About the same as a '96, little less than a '93, little more than a '95

Hard tops from 90 thru present will fit any year Miata.  Many available on
ebay.  likely to pay between $900-1200.

Yes they will fit, but the cost involved can vary widely depending on
the combination of car year and top year. See for more info:

What is the composition of the Miata hardtop under that paint?

Fiberglass or something similar.  AFAIK, they only weigh around 40
pounds.

It's definitely some sort of plastic/resin stuff.  Don't know
if it's got fiber reinforcement or not.

And that's mostly the window.

Can you use the Miata touchup paint on any flaked off pieces of the top?

CMC.  See the hardtop FAQ for a link.

Regards another thread, it has also links to owner dissatisfaction
with the Snugtop and Moss/MMMarketing one.
