We very much appreciated this video!!👍👍thank you!! Just redid the top on my wife’s car!! This video was tremendously helpful to us! Thank you! It’s the only one on the web seems 👍👍
Thanks for this video - very informative! I want to replace my soft top in the future, so it's great to know how to get the old stuff out. Also, thumbs up for straight-pipe Miata!
Hello Dimly Lit Garage, Thank you for your video posts. This one in particular helped me very much for reassembly of my 01 MR2/S that has been apart for more than a year. Interior was stripped and after time putting the puzzle back together to OEM specs is not always easy. Now a 2ZZ car and hoping to drive this weekend.....just in time for winter in MI....LOL! Cheers! Mr. P
Cheers mate your video helped a lot! The article on Spyderchat doesn't mention the 4 bolts you need to remove hidden down right at the front! Got mine off now but the problem I have with it is one side of the frame isn't sitting properly stopping the hood going down/up. I thought it would be easy to 'bend' it back into place but it's a puzzle!!
This was a very helpful video, but have you made a video showing how to put a new top on? If not could you either make one? Is it what you just did, but in reverse?
"It is so hot!" if only there were some sort of air-pushing device nearby to help remedy the situation ;) Great video though! I need to replace my top soon.
Hey Jake - I have a 2004 Spyder that is in great shape except for two things, the soft top and the leather trim on the doors. I was thinking of replacing the soft top myself but I've never tried something like this before. How many hours do you think this project to replace the top took you? I may have to double that time for how long it will take me. Please let me know - thanks
Do you really need to remove the plastic panels and frame if you only want to replace the existing softop with a new one? Your video is great, but you removed a lot of hardware for your project. Can I leave the internal body parts (panels and trays) if planning on replacing the softtop? thanks.....
nice job on the video a big help also working on the top just the one side hold down cable is broken/missing and does not sit properly around the door any advice?

Thank you so much for making this video! I am about to undertake this and it was SUPER helpful. :)

Thank you, very informative.
Fantastic explanation, thank you for sharing this detailed video.

Great video! 👍thank you!
Cool guys, yeah it was dark but doing it is better than nothin!
Ivan Orozco Thanks man
"It is so hot!" if only there were some sort of air-pushing device nearby to help remedy the situation ;)
Great video though! I need to replace my top soon.
Hahaha I know but it sounds bad on camera
I figured that was the reason. Suffering for the people!
Geek Therapy Radio oh yeah lol

This video has convinced me to pay someone who is experienced to do this...
Hi, what is the weight of the top ?
Do you really need to remove the plastic panels and frame if you only want to replace the existing softop with a new one? Your video is great, but you removed a lot of hardware for your project. Can I leave the internal body parts (panels and trays) if planning on replacing the softtop? thanks.....
nice job on the video a big help also working on the top just the one side hold down cable is broken/missing and does not sit properly around the door any advice?
Did you put the new top on yet no new video
what is the red dot? a camera problem?
Garchompy _ yes unfortunately
Is that an oem top or aftermarket?
I was about to pay someone to change the top on my mr2 but after watching your video, I kinda want to do it myself. Is it hard to install the new one?
I have never installed one but I think you could definitely do it! It may be helpful to have another set of hands to help also.
The soft top need to be removed in order to install a hard top?
No.
@@aNdReWxCoStE thanks
Come on. You dont show the extra room you get when the top is out? That s why i watched this.
Stop moving the camera! no point in zooming if it can't focus fast enough. Keep it in one place.
So long winded...
Is tour soft top up for sell?
Mix DaGod No, I’m gonna hang on to it for now.
