Thats starting to look like an Elise, as opposed to a tin 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: http://www.elisetalk.com/forums/showthr ... ht=softtop

HTH cheers
