What this product does:
This custom-designed S2000 solution replaces your worn-out factory elastic straps that are needed to properly fold the convertible top. When the original straps loose their elasticity the top does not fold correctly and jams about 4-6" before hitting 'bottom'. The result is the top does not go all the way down.
Here's some photos of the correct and incorrect folding of the top.
|
Correctly folded top where it folds almost out of view. |
Improperly folded top where it sticks up several inches |
 |

|
|
The support bar must be pulled down by the elastic straps for the top to fold properly. |
Here you can see the support bar is
staying up high because the elastic is weak. |

Features:
 | Installs in 15 minutes with "no tools" - only scissors to cut out the old strap. That's a lot better than using the factory replacement parts which require special tools to drill out and re-set the rivets. |
| Bargain Priced - only $20 compared to over $40 for the factory parts. |
| Quality construction - I use 2" wide elastic (vs 1 1/4" factory) and heat-seal the ends to prevent fraying. The U-pin holes are heat-punched and reinforced with special adhesive to keep them from tearing out. |
| According to feedback from customers this products fits all model years! |
