you're really going to make me search on something as tedious as this.

the only thing i found was from back in 03'.


I would hope some other products are out by now


man, i don't know who is more lazy, me for not wanting to use the search...or you for not putting down 10-20 letters of the product i should be using.


...ima go with you

lol... ill admit, when i wrote that reply i was really heated about something else that had happened earlier today... but i dont have a temper problem. Your smart *** comments in reply to people's questions get really annoying.

btw, i've heard a product called "Raggtop" or "RagTop" is really good for convertible tops... Don't know of any cures for the plastic window but i thought there was a thread somewhere about how to clean it, guess not though.

If your window is already "faded", It's done! I've bought many products including heavy duty "boat window cleaner" and nothing.... consider going glass window.

I like plastic much much better because it has a larger viewing area. i have considered going glass...but i dont think i would like it as much.

anyway here are some picures for anyone who is interested.





Santos, could you post pics of your old window up for a comparo?

Your well is causing all of that scratching in the middle of your window. Be sure to keep that area clean. That honestly doesn't look too good at all compared to mine. I use Meguiar's.

Thanks for the advice though, do you have pics of what yours looks like?

I really don't understand why honda used this crap for the window. Did they not test the design and material and fitment? That really crappy that it gets all scratched like that.

Even the new tops form tears in certain spots. I guess that's what we get for having such nice motors. We had to sacrafice somewhere.

Hey man, why is your rear tray like that? Could be that the tray slides around when the top is down, scratching the **** out of your window. You know I have spare parts for that.

i have no idea what it should look like.

the story is, the guy who owned it before me got his seats stolen, so yeah, the insurance company probally replaced the soft top poorly. and got a cheap p.o.s to begin with.

You're missing a few plastic panels back there, mainly the one long one that goes behind the tray, covering the black metal plate, and 2 pie-shaped pieces that support your frame in each rear corner.

You're missing #5,6,7

Nope. Center piece is about 4" wide and as long as the width of your rear window. Other pieces are about 10"x10"

Is it stuck to anything? Looks like someone just forgot a piece of molding in there.

Quick search in the brain says it doesn't belong in that area.
