I recall seeing this site taht sold a harder rubber band for the frame so when you lower the softtop, the rubber band will ensure your soft top is lowered properly.

The owner's manual is most likely in the secret compartment.



...and yeah, the windows will automatically roll down when you are lowering or raising the top.

I have checked the secret compartment. The car I bought was used. It had all the other manuals but not the one I needed.

Thanks,
Tony

How exactly is it the dealer's responsibility to give a discount because the top ripped?

however, if the dealer conducts themselves as i believe they would, they will honor the warranty and simply submit the claim for reimbursement from honda of america.


the hardtop comment was simply a preliinary avenue i would pursue for shits and giggles...he's got nothing to lose in trying

My top was starting to rip where the bar rubs and honda is replacing it this Tuesday, no hassles at all. You just have to hope your dealer will honor it like they should.
