About a year ago I put my soft top down on my 2004 Honda S2000 when all of the sudden I heard a loud pop. I could not find anything wrong at the time until I started driving with my top up and heard a lot of whispering sounds. There was a fine cut right above the release latch/hinge on my soft top. I brought it to the attention of the Honda dealership of whom I purchased the car from. They said that there was a known issue with my exact problem from the year from 2005 to 2008 for the Honda S2000. Seeing that I bought my car used (from their lot), out of warranty, and not within the years the service bulletin was for, they were going to charge me over $2500 to replace the top for a defect that was on the car. I am providing the Honda service bulletin number for your records: 09-033. Honda can pull up that service bulletin and there it will explain the issues and what actions needs to be taken place. I have done my research and there are a lot of car owners with his car that have been having these issues and was force to pay to get it fixed!
