    Soft top Wanted

    Not JUST because of the hard top problem!

    Anyone got one? - the frame, hood and fixings - or any of the bits?

    Been in touch with Oz and he can get new ones - pretty reasonable prices considering - but shipping is the problem. If anyone has had stuff shipped I'd appreciate any advice / info.

    Cheers

    I can supply you a Brand new complete roof (inc frame, cover, rear screen, catches, seals)

    £1919.33

    perhaps slightly more than you was planning on spending.

    Steve's price includes the framework etc...

    I bought a new roof & rear window from Honda through steve and it came to around £650...

    Nowhere near as bad then...

    BUT Paul has a contact that makes them even cheaper...

    Ady.
    Beatless for now...

    I've seen the Oxted Trimming thread - new hood for about £360 - good value - but I need the lot.

    Steve, If the hood from Honda is about £650 - can you supply just the frame and fittings?

    Looking through the site it looks like you guys used to have a shipment coming from Japan every other month? - is The Big Box not still going? Oz says he can get everything over there for about $2000 US - which at the current exchange rate is almost half price, but I have no idea how much it would cost to ship.

    Just the frame Item 14 in the picture is not available from Honda UK, Only the complete assembly (36) is still available.

    Marty,

    I've got a frame less the rubber seals and no rear window, I think that is all that's missing but I'll have to check against the picture. It has a hood on it but it's pretty tatty.

    £150
    If it ain't broke, take it apart and see how it works

    This is the back windowless hard top!

    I'm thinking I'll keep it - the car looks great with it on and they seem to be few and far between - I've had no luck whatsoever in finding another - or even a back screen and I'm going to have to have another crack at making one.
