The link you posted is just for the weatherstripping that goes around the liftgate glass , the frame is not included. The replacement fiberglass frames are ridiculously expensive. In the questions and answers part of that Ebay ad he states a price of $400 +. Thats pretty much in line with what Ive seen. Id be looking for a used top. I just picked up one in decent shape for $AMC 150 .
