I have been using Thierry for many years now. He has saved the day more times than I can remember! He is always fair on price, honest about what is worth doing, and wiling to come to the rescue in a pinch. He worked on my old '91 Miata many times and recently put a lovely new top on my new (to me) 2002 Miata. She is so pretty now. Thierry is the best! read more

Excellent customer service. Thierry returned my call minutes after I left him a voicemail inquiring about replacing the top for my 2007 Mazda Miata. He explained my options and after I decided on which top I wanted, he called me back to confirm that it was in stock. I initially called him on a Friday, and he agreed to install the new top on Monday at my work. He stayed in touch with me via text, updating me when he received the new top, and confirming Monday's appointment. He arrived at my work on Monday, and about 4 hours later my car had a beautiful new Robbins top. I paid by check and Thierry emailed me the invoice. There is a 6-year warranty on parts, and a 1-year warranty on labor. Theirry told me to contact him if I had any problems, but it's been 2 weeks and so far all is well! The total cost was $75 less than what I was quoted at a local shop that has done repairs on my old top. More importantly, I didn't have to take time off work to bring my car to a shop and I didn't have to arrange for a rental or borrow a car for a day. So it turned out to be cheaper and with added convenience. Bottom line: MiataTopWorks is hassle free, reasonably priced, offers great customer service with exceptional communication, uses quality parts, and provides quality work. read more

Found Thierry/Miata Topworks on Craigslist. My 1999 Miata's top had been worn since last Fall. I shopped around and nearest place to Vallejo was a business in Napa that wanted to charge me over $1500 to replace my top. Instead I found a hardtop on Craiglist and bought I thought it because it was cheaper than replacing my top. Then I found Thierry on Craiglist and almost couldn't believe his price. I thought it was too good to be true. Luckily it wasn't. He is just a fair businessman and want to please the customer. I made an appointment last weekend and drove over to Sausalito from my home in Vallejo. He said the work would take about four hours. I brought my road bike and planned to cycle around Marin while he worked on my car. He actually finished sooner than planned. It only took him about two and half hours to replace my top. The quality of the replacement top was excellent. I feel like I'm driving a new car. Please tell all your convertible driving friends to patronize Miata Topworks. read more

I had Thierry replace my 2003 Miata's leaky soft top last June and was waiting for the "rain test" before posting a review. I am happy to report that my car is dry as a bone inside after the recent downpours. I can even park it nose-down in our slanted driveway without worry that I will find a swamp in the footwell the next morning! Count me another happy Thierry customer, and just last weekend I recommended him to a local 10AE owner. read more

Thierry did an excellent job with the top on my '96 Miata, going out of his way to do a, (can I say it?), a top notch job. To save money I had asked for an EZ-on top, but there was a defect in the design of the top. Thierry got a Robbins top instead and installed it for no extra cost. I recommend him very highly. read more

My daughter lives in Vacaville and needed a new top on her Miata. Miata Topworks was recommended by a body guy at a dealership. We found Thierry on Craig's list. We did all this from Kansas City. He took care of the car on one of our visits out to see our daughter. The work was fantastic and so reasonable. Fixed in just a few hours while we did some sightseeing. The car looks amazing and we are so thankful. read more

Thierry, the owner of Miatatopworks, was great to work with. I had to get a new top installed on my 2003 Miata, and the only convenient place to get the job done was during the weekday in San Francisco, where I work. I knew it was gonna be hard to secure a workable location, but Thierry worked with me and got the job done. He is mobile, so he came over on a Thursday morning, and the garage in my building, where one of the attendant that I talked to who said it was ok for the worked to be done, turned out that it is not ok. Of course, I should have known that, but I thought I'd have to reschedule with Thierry, but he made a suggestion to drive around to a spot where he thought might work, and sure enough(and luckily), we found a spot, where he was even able to park his truck near by, and got the job done in a couple of hours! I'm sure we got very very lucky with the parking situation, but the point is, he worked with me and got the job done. Now my car looks great. I am super happy with the installation. Highly recommend Miatatopworks! read more

Great experience, came to my house and put my top on. was very patient, even though I kept on waffling about what I want. In the end, it worked out great. If you need a new top, this is the guy. My 1992 Miata is so much better now! read more

Outstanding service! Within 48 of calling Thierry, I had a new top, installed in my home driveway. Thierry was very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. Installation took about 2.5 hours and my Miata looks almost brand new. A totally excellent experience from start to finish. I highly recommend Miatatopworks. read more

Good service and top for a great price. Thierry was nice to deal with and very reponsive to my calls and questions. I wasn't sure if the rain rails needed to be replaced in addition to the top. He checked them out when he took off the old top and determined that they were in fine condition and did not need to be replaced. He could have just said that they needed to be replaced to make a few extra bucks. I appreciate his honestly and judgement. I would highly recommend Miata Topworks. read more

I went to Thierry to replace the top on my '01 Miata that had been slashed in city some years ago. He was very responsive and replied quickly via both email and phone. He ordered the top quickly and was available to replace it quickly. Only took him a few hours and he did an excellent job. Highly recommended! read more

Outstanding experience. My 92 Miata looks beautiful - Thierry did a great job. He worked quickly and was done in about 2 hours. Very easy shop to find - we were in and out in no time. I definitely recommend Thierry if you need a new top installed. Can't say enough good things about how good the top looks and how easy the experience was. read more

My 2000 Miata needed a top repair pretty darn badly, as the seam above the window had begun to tear and the previous owner had glued all of the former stitching together very sloppily. I found MiataTopWorks and Thierry through miata.net, and after looking at the reviews here, decided to order a Robbins Streamline Top from him. E-mail communication was seamless, and Thierry was very accurate on the quoted price. Once I arrived in Sausalito to drop off my car, Thierry was up front about the possibility of a rain rail replacement considering my car's age, and midway through the installation he texted me letting me know that I did, in fact, need a new rail (he showed me the old one to see the difference). Less than three hours after dropping off my car, it was ready to go. The new top looks perfect both inside and out, and the Streamline design is far more sleek than OEM. Thierry also stands by his work, and even gives tips on maintaining the new top. He also does BMW convertible tops, and my dad is considering using him for his when the time comes. read more

Watch out for this con man. He will use used parts, claiming they are new, and he couldn't even install my window correctly. It looked awful. When my lawyer threatened him, he quickly sent my money back. I had to pay even more for the damage he did to the rain rails. He will promise you everything for an amazing price, but refuse to give me a receipt, show you an invoice order for the new top you purchased. He is a not very clever con man. Ask for his license number. Bet he doesn't have one. He should be reported. read more

This is the second top Thierry has installed on my 1992 Miata. The first one was replaced due to age and the plastic window had badly faded and cracked. I dropped off my car at his shop in Sausalito and took the wife shopping while Thierry replaced the top. When it was finished, he called me and then delivered the car to us in town and he walked back to his shop. Amazing customer service! Needless to say I was impressed not only with the service but with his workmanship as well. He installed a new top with a glass window, replaced the rain rails, and ensured all the linkages worked properly. That was nearly three years ago and the top still looks great. That is until some vandals decided they wanted my stereo and proceeded to slice up the top to get inside the car. So, of course, I called Thierry right away to get it replaced. This time he came to my home in Fremont and did the job while I was at work. Another great job - I could not be more satisfied. The service, the price, the quality of work are all top notch. Thierry is the best! read more
