And Specticle...you replaced the top WITH the frame...which is easier than just the fabric alone.

Willie: You think they would somehow be able to make me a glass soft top to fit the 00-01 frame? I need a new soft top bad, and ill most likely do it at that place regardless. Or maybe it will be less if I get a plastic window...?

I replaced the top myself in October when they cut it to take my seats... unless you have a garage with AC dont even try it .... I was sweating more than at the Kami meet !!

$900 is an awesome deal considering the work involved ... paid close to that for the Honda top alone.

Get the glass window. It may cost a little more but it is DEFINITELY very well worth it.

Thats awesome, im definately willing to pay a little more for the glass. I just didnt want to pay another couple of hundred for a whole new frame and what not. I can barely see past my plastic window now.
