I recently found a hole in my top at a wear point between the brackets on my '04. Honda extended care doesnt cover it, but the regular warranty does! So check that out! If thats no good, then you can try what I did. I went to Hancock fabric store and bought some waterproof nylon patch squares in black. I then bought some patch glue....the kind that you can use to glue things onto clothes (should that strange desire ever come over you...), and I glued the patch onto the inside of the top. Its hardly noticeable from the inside and I hope this keeps the hole from expanding. I only did this a couple of days ago, so i cant give you any long term results. You cant tell from the outside and its really stuck on the inside good. Im not about to pay for a new top yet.....
