Hey everyone,
i dont know much about the softtops as ive never really had one, the top on mine was cr*ppy when i bought it so i ripped it out and just used my hardtop for the last 4 years or so...
But im beginning to miss those topdown moments without having to check the forecast first... or have someone else to help take the roof off..

So I'm looking to revamp my ragtop as it needs a new skin and window
ive got a 1990 NA.
Does anyone know what year mxs have compatible skins to go over my original soft top frame? or possibly when a compatible glass windowed version came out?

Anyone have a good condition skin they'd being willing to part with??

Any help would be great!

Luke.

There's one for sale here.
NA or NB roof will fit. NA roof frame will need to be modified slightly to work properly with the NB roof.
More info here.

Thanks for the links JBT thats got some great info! Ill have to have a good read when i get home tonight...

...so did any of the NAs come with glass windows??
If not.. it would be safe to say its an NB or later skin if it does have a glass window yeah??

u can get glass window skin from aftermarket shops which are made for NA frame and it only requires a small mod as JBT stated.

I have a Robbins Cloth softop skin, with glass window on Tweety....it came with fitting instructions, including the parts and information on how to update the NA frame to work like a NB frame to cater for the glass window. I bought it through MX5mania.
