Re: Soft top roof insulation lining - 1998 NB MX-5
I have a piece of vinyl glued to the underside of my soft top, it doesn't do much in the way of insulation but it looks better than the faded underside of the OEM softtop.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Okibi - has the glue/vinyl addition had any decrease on the the compactness of the top after it's folded? I've been toying with a similar idea.

Nah haven't noticed any difference.

I resolved the faded underside issue on my soft top by painting it with a edger paint for doing the edged of leather belts etc; fixed it up a treat.
I didn't even have to "feather" the paint near the edges to get it to blend.
Cheap and very effective. - no odour either and water tight
