Default Workshop Manuals

Does anyone know where to but an S2000 workshop manual? Which is a good brand? How much etc?

I've seen loads of postings but I'd love advice from someone who has one and uses it.

Thanks

The helm manual is the factory service manual.

Accept no substitute.

AGREE!!!!! it's worth whatever it costs to get the actual book the factory developed to work on our cars
I bought mine thru H and A--I think it cost about $60

The ESM (Electronic Service Manual) that most people refer you to for free is difficult to navigate. I say stick with the hardcopy. It is easier to keep clean and read compared to accessing a computer/keyboard mid-project.

The Helm's (Factory) Manual is updated with new info pertaining to the modified models, so the early publications won't have anything regarding say....a glass window, or door tweeters, or TSA, or reference different wheel sizes, etc. Just be sure to get one that encompasses your model year, or ALL models to date if you want to pass it on later.

Buy the 00-06 book, as it has all models. The Most info for the $$$$$
