Sounds like you need to talk to Jake about cleaning up that rear window.

you could also find someone with a hardtop that doesn't need the strikers and see if they will sell them.

or you could get a hardtop
hahah how does he clean the rear window? i used to clean mine all the time, but got really lazy because it gets hazy all over again.

i found a guy with softtop strikers, hopefully those will solve it

i would buy a hardtop, but im broke. want to buy one for me minako? ill treat you to 5 lunches. hahha

I eventually got used to the sound. I have no regrets at all from buying a hardtop.

I hated that I couldn't go top down at a moment's notice. I

was tired of not being able to take it off by myself when I wanted to go topless.

My right latch is very loud too. So I can take it to the dealer and they will fix it? By the way, how can the hardtop have more rattles than the soft? Also doesn't the cabin gets a lot quieter with the HT on? I want to get a hardtop but I don't DD the S2k so I really have no need for it.

the hardtop isnt an integrated part of the car so it "flexes" on its own. the cabin gets quieter from wind noise, but the engine noise goes up.

lol 5 lunches? Something seems a bit off-balance here

I've already spent quite a bit of money on some new mods for my baby, so I'm kinda low on funds right now. Sadly, none of those mods include a hard top

Send ushjt a PM... he has done wonders with the plastic windows - and he has very reasonable prices.

Being able to hear the engine more clearly is music to my ears, though. That is something I miss about having the hardtop.
