Hey All,

Hi Justin,
Have you contacted the sponsor and local specialist, MX5 Mania?
Many MX5s end up there to be wrecked or to be turned into race cars and obviously when a NB comes up, the whole roof is for sale.
If you're lucky you might end up with a perfect one and just pay for supply and fitment.

Otherwise you could buy the not-perfect NB soft top and order in a replacement roof.

Maybe there are some other suggestions, e.g. specific motor trimmers who specialise in MX5s and similar cars, who may have the soft top in as-new or new-top replacement, ready to supply and fit.

If you check the mx5 club website mx5.com.au, someone may be advertising one, some time.

I hope this helps.
B.

Cheers for that B. Yeah i've done the 2nd hand roof before on a previous mx5 and whilst it is the cheapest way to go the edging cracked (just over the drivers side window) not long after i bought it and i started getting moisture through the window, hence im after a new roof all together.

Get one off ebay & install it youself is going to be most cost effective - there are a number of online tutorials. A while ago I was quoted about 5 hours labour for soft-top removal & replacement by an independent Mazda workshop.
