Sorry to break it to you, but it is a pretty involved process. Here's a how-to posted by another member to help you decide!

Good lord thats a long process. I didn't wanna look at the "official" instructions until its my time.Hell I rather pay the however many hundred bucks for someone else to install it.
Well damn, that makes it very clear that it straight up sucks ass to install it yourself. haha

My dad owns a 2007 S2k and he got a new top at a place on 1960 around Perry Rd. I think it was next door to that pest and pools store (if anyone knows what I am talking about). He paid like 1200 or 1300 for the entire job (parts and install). He is very happy with the way it looks but he says they used a top that is thinner than the OE top so it is a little louder on the freeway. He's older though (58) so he doesn't have the top down as much as I do and I wouldn't even notice with the bass in the trunk.

If anyone wants the name of the place if you are considering replacing your top let me know and I can get it from him. They did everything including replace the glass window. So I thought that was a pretty good deal considering the top all by itself at the dealership cost that much.

Oh and welcome to the forums =).

Also - forced induction is definitely the way to go. It makes the s2000 sound like a v8 lol.

Mine will be getting replaced as soon as i touch down in the states in july so that'd be great. If i can save myself the hassle then id rather pay to have it installed. I wonder how much it would be to bring in the robbins top and just have them install it.
