Default Plastic back window??? Try this.

They make a tube for the back window for us with the older s2000's that protects it when it's down, right? Well, for a while now I have just been using some really soft cloths kinda rolled up then just realized what would work well and am now using it. Got 3 big soft paint rollers and put them in there when the top is down. They store nicely in the trunk and keep it from kinking up. Anyone else tried this?

Yeah, but for the $60 they want for that, I'll just spend the 7 or 8 on paint rollers. Works fine for me

Paint rollers sound like a brilliant idea to me.

I bought pipe insulation - it is a foam tube with slit the length of it. Costs a couple bucks at the hardware store and works great. If you really want, you can wrap it with felt and stuff the "ends" in the slit to hold it in place.

A used swimming pool noodle thing wrapped in flannel material. Just spray some 3M adhesive on the noodle and wrap flannel material around it. Cut the ends of the material about 2 " longer than the noodle and stuff it into the hole in the end. This fits no problem in the trunk and costs less than $5.00
