First off.. I Do Not Own An S2000.

however i do have the opportunity to buy an 08 CR at a very very very cheap and affordable price from my brother in law @ ~7k just taking over the rest of his payments.

As much as i Love hard tops, i would also love to have a soft top. I have a DC2 i track a few times a year and i know would be ideal for the S2000 to have as least weight as possible.. however i still do daily/weekend drive these cars i take to the track and would love the ability to open/close the top anytime, anywhere whenever it is cold/hot or for whatever reason w/out having to come all the way back home just to drop off/grab the hard top.

So.. has anyone who owns a CR put a soft top on their car?

 

Good Idea. I have wondered this myself. My guess is that it would have all the same mounting points intact for less$ manufacturing cost diffferential.

 

Did some researching around the US to friends who actually own CR's and yes it is possible to do so.. but in order for you to do so you must take out 1)The Tonneau cover 2) The Rear brace 3) Change the back side panels..

Surprisingly i found that the Type S (Basically the Jap CR Model) does come with a soft top so they must have parts that are compatible with soft top

 

be the first and try it! let us all know! do a write up! Id be very interested to see it

 

Only if the CR has mounting brackets for the soft top frame. Take the panels off and find out.

 

Guy on S2ki is compiling parts and doing it to his CR........

 

go for it!

 

just remove the hardtop and that'll save the most weight. just wear a poncho if its rains

 

You are correct. There are absolutely no brackets/mounts/wiring harnesses present in the CR for the softtop assembly. You'd have to remove the brace and side panels and obtain all the softtop accessories and you will be good to go. It's not that easy though, it's quite a complicated process.

Try looking on www.s2ki.com as there are a few people who did this.
