My owner's manual doesn't have that cool wood trim around the sides and bottom. How can I also get the DeLuxe one? Can I get the mounting holes in a different spots
I have the "Workmate" special anniversary edition. See, my Honda dealer runs out the back end of Home Depot.

Dear Mr. ViperX,
I am so happy I found this thread. I have had my lil car for over five years now and I have never figured out what other drivers do to have the top so neatly folded down at the back of the seats. My top stays up all the time. Once I unclamped the little box clamps on the front sides of the top, and the top loosened a lil bit; so I tried the roof button by the gear shifting thing and nothing happened, nothing! I even tried reclamping the box clamps. Pushed on the button, nothing happened! I almost broke the lil roof button off pushing front and back. I even tried pushing on the button after turning on the key. Still no luck!

It is turning spring again and I just keep trying everthing I can think of. If you can help me, it will be so good, because I do not want to bother those nice folks at Honda.

Jim, I'm afraid you got one of the rare S2000s with the manual top. You need to find the hand crank that's hidden in the second secret compartment.

xviper - thanks for clearing up my shift pattern problem. Now, sometimes when I drive my speedo and odo are really high, other times, really low. Is this some sort of parallel universe thing...?

But seriously now: where's the radio? I see some controls beside the steeering wheel, but nothing happens when I push them. Or did my dealer mistakenly think I'd ordered the "radio delete" option?

Note before flaming: Yes, I searched. In the secret compartment (where else?). It's not there.
