As the title states, I want to remove my OEM softtop this saturday, but I don't know how. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Easiest way is to put the top up all the way and roll the windows down. Get a sharp knife and cut around the base of the softop until it's been completely lacerated from the car.

Seriously, this topic has been covered before. Your best bet is to score an S2000 manual and/or use the search function. The removal of the is a bit of a pain in the arse, but it's all pretty straightforward.

As Nobody just said (well, the second part anyway ), you should get a service manual. The soft top removal is not a plain and simple procedure unless you don't care to ever put it back on or not worried about selling it to someone else. If this is the case, then just start dismantling till it all comes off. If you want to do it right, you should follow the manual.
