Default soft top replacement

hi,

I have 00 s2000 with plastic soft top and it cracked. I'm thinking to replace with the glass. Is anyone know where I can go for cheap labor for the replacement around wichita. the price is kind of expensive. It's around $500 for labor.

Thanks

Are you looking to just replace the window or the entire top and window?

You wouldn't happen to be the Yellow one on the plaza would you?

Talk to Tim out at Lee's Summit Honda. I hear he is the go to guy for anything S2K related.

John told me about how he did his plastic window replacement, if you take the top off your self and take it to an apulsty shop with the new plastic window and have them sew it into place for cheap and then put the top back on

well i'm not sure what's all involved in the glass replacement, i think you have to get the entire top since the hole is smaller on the glass tops, but i'm not sure on price, you'd have to check around

Man, I am soooo glad I was able to get rid of that ugly plastic window.

I dunno of any place cheap. I replaced my entire top, parts and labor, for 1300.
