The window looks half the size of the regular one. Most likely it should be an easy fit. Unless they changed the roof a bit too. The defogger must hook up at the hardtop's defogger so a switch will have to be run to the console as well.

 

Hmmm....my original topic/question was:

You guys/gals think that the rear glass window can be retro-fitted on the 00 and 01 models?

It looks do-able from the pics.

Rick or anyone chime in on this...please.

 

I wonder if those of us with brand new MY2001's could complain enough to get one for free?

 

The new rear window looks a heck of a lot more durable. Here in the not very sunny North of England I would certainly accept the trade-off of visibility for it. It would be so nice to have a demister without having to have the hard top on...

 

Some here in Japan say that Honda will introduce a convertible top replacement kit (with the rear glass window) in 2002 for the '99-'01 model. According to them, the price of the kit will be "moderate", but I'm sure that labor cost will be expensive.

 

Thats what I want to hear! I'm glad Honda is thinking about us with plastic windows.

 

Either I think this would require replacing the entire top? No? Or maybe just that piece?

 

I have a really good top shop guy. I asked him awhile back if he could swap out my window for a piece of glass. He said "Nope, not enough room."

 

the only way to retrofit the rear glass window is to change the all soft top.

 

Hey MAV,

Who are all those headless people trying to look at your cay
