Cutting Speed sensor wire.
This allows you to raise or lower the soft top whilst moving, with one click of the handbrake on.
It comes in handy in two situations.
a: When stuck in slow moving traffic with the top down and the rain comes on, you don't need to stop.
b: It pisses off other S2000 owners if you can put the top up while moving when your're on a meet and it starts to piss down.
NOT recommnded at anything above 10mph though.

You could put a simple switch there between the two cut ends. Easily done with a touch of solder and a 99p switch from maplin.... the only question is where is the wire? under the dash or what?
Out in the car today and trying to stop just long enough to get the roof down but the traffic kept doing that annoying 3mph thing where it never really stops, just becomes monotonous!
Ended up just pulling over and putting the roof down.
