Roof rust opinions please.

Since buying my SLK two years ago I have replaced the bonnet and wings( fenders) with new ones and also had the rear arches done. Now it just leaves the roof panels.

The rear screen panel has rust on both sides and the top panel has rust spots. My bodyshop quoted £450 or $640 to remove/ refix rear window and treat as necessary for both panels. However on ebay I can get both panels the same colour rust free for £100 or $140.
Not exactly looking forward to the ebay option as it seems a difficult job to remove and strip my own roof then replace with the rust free ones of the same colour. I would appreciate your opinions please on what would be the best option.
