At this point I think it's a dealer-only item, but I don't know the cost. Insurance should help if you have full coverage.

There is a replacement window that the dealer can order. I saw the TSB for it. I think it was TSB-00048. It looks like a PIA to install. It requires removing the seats, glove box, rear window tray, roll hoops, drilling out the window rivets...

I just had my rear plastic window replaced by the dealer because the original was so badly scratched. It was done in conjunction with the seat-belt recall, but they send the job out to a specialty shop that deals with convertable tops. The new window is crystal clear. Haven't tried it out in the rain yet to see if there are any leaks.

According to the Majestic Honda web site, the list price is $218.22. The discount price is $163.66. Check out the Parts Store link at http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/home.htm select the "Soft Top" under the component selection.

That seems to be a great price...only 163.00
i spoke to a local Honda Dealer near me and they wanted 247.25 for it. i think i'll order it through them if i can't find a better price.

Swurvydel, you better get a quote for the installtion cost 1st! That is probably the biggest expense.
