Cheers Andy
Ed who did you get to fit the additional brackets please

I take it you just buy a standard S2 Elise soft top

I never got round to fitting the brackets and the cross bars.
I just removed the roof and ran with just the softtop. The little bits for the front of the car can be purchased from Lotus and yep its just a standard s2 softtop.
Here is the fitting guide:

OOOOH not ditching the roof are we ken.........

Thinking about it Neil - one of the mechanics at F1 in Newcastle was trying to convince me to do it.

Need to save up for soft top though

The seats (tillets) are ace

and the scrote-hole is for the 6-point harnesses (which I have) which do'nt harm yer busters

Indeed, and now my "wee chappies" (like it btw
