ooh I like that black one! Oh wait thats mine

Anyway the Blind Spot is the same as it is with the soft top, but the rear window is a little larger so you can see better, but obviously its not as large as the OEM hardtop.

I still prefer the hardtop to be the body color. If you are going to spend that kind of cash it should not look like the soft top. IMHO. And I just love the OEM hardtop!

Mugen Fiberglass - 44-49 pounds - $2,600
OEM Aluminum - 44 pounds - $3,000

Remember, the back window of the Mugen is not glass like the OEM Hardtop it is Lexan (plastic) without a defrost unit.

The weights listed on the Mugen tops is with All the moutning hardware also, just the top itself is not that heavy, maybe 20ish pounds. Im gonna guess by looking at those weights that the OEM hardtop alone is 44 pounds plus the hardware (about 25 pounds). So in the end its a decent amount more in weight then the Mugen ones.

I too like defrosters, but I really like the Mugen look over the oem one. Are you just not supposed to drive the car durring cold weather days?
