Default Hardtop, what do I need to know?

For anyone who has the hardtop:

I'm about to order one and I wanted to know if there is anything I should be aware of, especially with regard to taking it off and putting it on.

Also, is there any reason to order it from a dealer when HandA has it so cheap?

if your car has the hardtop "installation kit" already installed, then buy it from H&A.

otherwise, i would suggest the dealer - they can install the "installation kit" and put the hardtop on for you in one shot - plus the hardtop AND install would both be warranteed (in canada, OE accessories carry a 12 month warranty if installed at a honda dealer).

You have an "02" right?

Like the spaghetti sauce, "it's in there"!
Get it from H&A....install is easy anyway, I did it on mine and can e-mail you the photo's of the process if you have a high speed access e-mail you want them sent to.
