Can't you get an actual OEM Honda top for the same $$$?

cabrioworld makes a cloth top which is better than our vinyl IMO.

i hated the plastic window on my MY01 too. you can definitely fit a soft top with glass window directly on.

Carefull, there are some additional straps you need to add as well (I think) to make it fold properly. Remember, the glass in the window will not fold in half more than once.

This is NOT a DYI job if you are asking this question. This is gonna cost you nearly $2000. And no, thats not a Typo

(About $1000 for the top, and nearly the same amount to install it)
