New member of the s2k community and i recently just bought an 02 s2k. Anyway had a question about the convertible being gone, what all do i need to get a top on and working properly? frame, motors, etc.

 

It will be costly, you need frame motors and cloth of course. Which will run around 1k roughly for everything used if you can find it. I'm actually planning on removing my softtop but I haven't decided on wether to sell it or keep it just in case I ever sell the car.

 

Not to mention the wiring, switches etc that have been removed.

Hopefully that stuff is still there. Nobody can really tell ya exactly what ya need. Usually people just remove the top and motors for weight reduction.

 

Obviously, search the S2Ki classifieds for miscellaneous parts...tops and frames sometimes are listed. Parts...motors, frames, latch strikers, etc. are also listed on fleabay. Search Craigslist. Maybe you could post what you are looking for in the "Want To Buy" section of the classifieds. Could get pricey buying all of the parts that you are missing. Happy hunting!

 

You're seriously screwed unless you can find a donor car.

Do you know the back story as to why your car was missing its top?

 

Usually it's weight reduction after installation of a hardtop.

 

Used tops with frames and motors can be had fairly cheap.

It's the labor of putting a top in that can be a bitch.

 

Find one used. I sold my soft top and frame for $750.
