for $519 + $50 s/h, might as well go get the EZ ON brand from a site s2ki know is reputable.

here is the link:
http://www.topsonline.com/index.php?CarmodelID=746000

its $438. It came to a total to under $500 shipped.

I just recently had it installed in my '01 s2000, and fitment is excellent

any disadvantages of the EZOn top compared to the OEM one? did you get vinyl or cloth?

I'm curious as to this also. From the search that I did on the forum it seems like there are kits out there to put a glass window onto a 2000/2001 model, but you have to replace the entire top, not just the window.

I have a my00 with the original top and window and should probably replace it soon, I'll keep an eye on this thread.

yes. I had a MY01 and recently did the plastic to glass window conversion. you can not just replace the window, its gonna have to be the whole top.

The link I sent earlier to the OP has a top with glass window specifically designed for the s2000's with plastic window, its like a conversion kit.

i think it just bolts right up...but yeah i am curious about the material too. How close is it to OEM vinyl in look, feel, and quality?

You do have to modify a tad bit. It should come with extra straps that you will rivet to your existing soft top frame so that the new glass top will fold correctly. Just drill a few holes and rivet and your good to go. It should have instructions in the package as to what to do and where.
