Drives a Ute!

Hey guys, My ute went into ford today to get the suspension fixed up and also get lowered a bit in the back. When I first bought the car it came with an ARB canopy fitted to it, I have now taken it off in preparation to have a hardtop fitted in the coming weeks. While I was at Ford the manager there asked me how much I would want for the canopy, now knowing how Ford work I know that they will try to undercut me to make a profit (as they all do). So what I am wondering is how much should I ask for? The canopy is in excellent condition, no dents, scratches etc.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks. Todd.

They usually go for $1000-$1500.
Also what ended up being the problem with your springs? |

Yeah he just said that he wants it in the shop and that someone might want it. G6ET I believe it was what you said, the centre bolt in the spring pack had given way. The car had been lowered with blocks before I got it and the right bolt wasn't put in, therefore making it less stable.
The genuine hardtop is costing $1600 and the lowering/fixing of springs is $300 so I would like to go for a straight swap. Thanks for the help fellas.
