I pick up my top from paint tomorrow, but I might still wait a week or so to put it on because they said the paint will still be kind of soft. I also daily drive mine and it keep snowing/raining a tiny bit and I dont want to mess up the new paint with water spots all over it.

We'll see though.

A small tip for people wanting to put in their own rear window. I keep getting PM's about this, so I thought I would post it here. I actually just put in my new tinted rear window in last night, and I got it perfect this time with no smears or anything.

With your 3M Windo Weld, it has that big plastic tip, and you cut it to determine the size of hole you want. Of course the bigger it is, the more will come out. You honestly do not need to much of this stuff. I cut mine so its about the size where a toothpick could barely side into it. The first time I started, I made the mistake of putting the weld in the center of the flat part of the indention, do not do this! You will get it on your window, and it will look like crap through your window since you will be able to see it. Put it the best you can in the corner, and put a nice bead of the weld with no gaps. You should have a bead a little bigger than the opening of your caulk gun where it comes out.

I have everything done with mine, and will be installing it either tomorrow, or Sunday afternoon. I will post pics once its done.

Looking good Man, is that Spyder rear seal you have on in the pictures or the Vis one?

suzuka-blue-s2k

It's Spyders rear seal, but I added another soft weatherstrip seal to make it easier to put on and off. With just spyder seals, it takes tons of adjusting to get it to seal right. This way It still sits really good, but seals very easily so whenever I take it off, it will be a breeze to put it back on.


BTW, for anyone wanting to fix hardtop squeaks, Shin Etsu grease from Honda does wonders! I put this along my rear main seal and it made all the squeaking completely go away.

are you experiencing any loud ass wind noise? i've had this ht for about 1.5 yrs now and bout i'd say 6 months later my ears started to bleed coz of the loud ass wind noise inside the car (so to speak).
