It's not....But everyone always talks about how much lighter the Mugen top is and the OEM is not that heavy...

Mugen is only lighter because it uses a smaller polycarb rear windown and has no interior lining.

I see, and agree that it is very easy to take on and off (OEM)

Not only does it cut out road noise, it is also much cooler in the summer.

Other than the matching OEM color, the lining is actually what I like most about the OEM hard top.

Since I took the hardtop off, even with the top up, it gets hotter in the cabin....

True, but the car (with AC on) gets MUCH cooler with the hard top. I tested this theory last week, and there is no comparison

Which means it's probably a lot more road noise....Not that anyone cares about that...
