What's even better is, the "Item 9/14" is even LINKED to the page to order it.
So, there's your recent question....
That thread also provides OWNER FEEDBACK on the rattles, fitment, etc of the hardtops.

so, once again...I wonder if people just ignore the search function.

I wanted to have my Mugen style Carbon Fibre HT as much wind/water and sound proof as I could get, so fitting out a hood liner was an idea, when I ordered mine.

The result was about $150 worth of product and DIY time and effort.
I can say that I have achieved what I set out to do. The hood lining actually prevents any possible vibration between the inner and outer shells, that was there in my initial fitting.



It is so air tight now that the other night whilst finishing off the lining, I was in the car with the windows up, and I tell ya, after 20 minutes I was feeling very claustrophobic and stuffy that I had to wind down the windows. Wind/road noise is minimal, with the radio on normal volume. I recommend giving it a DIY go, pretty easy.

Went to Dixieline and got 10 ft of auto weather molding that has about 4 small ridges on top for the top to grab onto. It's about as wide as the plastic strip we have that runs around the edge but twice as thick as the tape that came with the hardtop. For the front that separates the top of the windshield with the hardtop I bought a thick V shaped auto weather stripping that matches right up with the windshield thanks to the V shape and creates a great seal. Now I've noticed that my latches creek at times so I have to figure out something to eliminate that.

Mine went through 2 owners(3rd owner of the HT, here) so it lost its stickiness and slid off the black strip plus it wasn't that thick to begin with though it was really wide. I looked around for something that was thicker but not as wide for a cleaner look.

I eliminated most of the creaking if not all of it, by just cloth taping under the latches and on the HT side, so to change the surface area from fibre glass (ht) and metal ?(latches) to cloth tape on both sides (latch and ht).

Buy a tube of Shin Etsu grease online and that will take care of almost all of the creaking and crunching.
