Default s2000 window wrinkle preventer

I'm a new s2000 owner and I haven't even driven my car yet, it's currently being shipped to me. If you go on ebay and type in s2000 window, there is a wrinkle preventer thing for 12.95 Has anyone tried this and is there really a wrinkle problem with the car? Thanks.

There is a guy on here that came up with it. From what I remember it works really good and the plastic window folds perfectly everytime.

I'm still a lil' confused about it what it does myself. Does it not fold down okay everytime you put the top down?? How bad are the wrinkles?? And a question that's kinda off topic but can you tint the rear window?? I know it's plastic so could it stick well?? Thanks guys.

Sometimes when you fold the top the plastic window does not fold in a straight line and causes wrinkling of the windo. With this in place the fold is always straight.

You can tint the back plastic window with static cling tint. It does not stick to the window like traditional window tint and can be removed anytime.

Hope this helped

just clean her and polish everyday, some of them work for somepeople some of them do not, its all a gamble.

So what protection does tint offer? Where do you buy it and also at visibilit in the back window is very crucial espicillay at night would that tink make it harder to see?

My windows in good shape but I am very anal about condition and use several products and methods and clean her everyday....

KB8vsMJ23 - they are elastic straps that attach to the velcro patches on either side of the inside of the window..................and work pretty well for the 00-01 tops with plastic windows. I have a set, myself!!! They are not necessary for the newer model years (02-04).

SilverKnight - you can get the static-cling tint at Home Depot. XViper did a DIY on it a while back. It lasts for about a year and you'll need to reapply it. The roll is pretty inexpensive. Here ya go.............Tint Thread
