yes but you have to buy some elastic straps to modify the frame so that when it retracts it folds down correctly. I think they did this by using the elastic straps to connect the 2nd and 3rd bar. I'll tell you what, heres the first part of the instructions. If you want the whole document PM "Clovis" on here and ask for the 2002 glass conversion and he'll give it to you through email, so give the email address. It helps alot.

Heres the first part to explain.

So what

Here are the instructions.

I just did the swap. I actually bought a brand new aftermarket top off ebay for $550, fit and materials are just like stock. The only thing I could tell that was diffrent was the rear glass doesnt say honda, but it's still PPG.

Heres the link to where I got the new top if you are interested: http://stores.ebay.com/CAR-TOP-GUY
