Default Mugen hard top.... yes/no?

Ok my new S2 pals... got the dilemma on trying to find a OEM hard top figured out, and thanks to those who helped with info. We decided (well, got talked into) getting the Mugen top for a killer price. FRP, will paint GPW to match.

In doing a "mugen hard top" search, SKREEMR had replied on a post that brought up a few questions maybe someone could verify.

Mugen top: no headliner? panel with gas door release on passenger side? rear lexan window is slightly tinted? no defrost?

If these are all true I guess it's something to get used to but if anyone else has experience with the top, is there anything else to share so we are not shocked when we get it? It looks very nice, and we couldn't pass up on the price so it was kind of an impulse buy
Thanks in advance for any info.

i have a seibon copy... almost exactly the same... no head liner, the gas release panel doesn't need to be changed... the rear window on mine is plexiglass, i think, though i have no idea...and it was clear and of course no defrost.
