Default New guy from Norway

Helllo.

I just bought my first Honda s2000 it's a yellow 2001 model. All stock apart from a HKS exhaust. It's my second car the first one was a 92 Prelude non Vtec.
I wanted to try and take the soft top off (after owing the car for 1 day), and it resulted in the window cracking. I am looking for an replacement with a heated glass window.
I was hoping anyone could help me out where to find a new soft top? A black soft top with heated glass window and the harness for the heater in the window. Ive searched around on google and found the robbins top and an OEM top with heated glass window (im not sure if Honda made a soft top with glass window?)

If anyone could help me in the right direction it would be appreciated a lot!

Välkommen! I´m not 100% sure but I think you need the eBay top with small window to work on a 2001, if you use the OEM big window top it will try to fold in the middle of the window and crack.

Welcome!

I had the same problem with the window cracking on my '00 when I bought it. I went with the Robbins top and it's great. There's a very good step by step tutorial on the site somewhere that saved me about $700 because I installed it myself. You'll be very happy with the glass window, it's much better than the plastic. Good luck and hope you enjoy the car!

Thanks!

I was looking at this Robbins top: http://www.topsonline.com/model/Conv...nda_S2000.html the one at the bottom, they also have the harness for sale. Do you think this is the right one?

I have allready read the DIY on how to change the top so that will be no problem, the only concern i have is to get the right top that fits the car ^^

And I Love the car so far! The power of the engine scares me but ill get used to it!

I ordered my top from the same site. Topsonline.com was great and very helpful. I got the same one except mine doesn't have the defroster. You will be very happy with the fitment of the Robbins, it goes on perfectly
