Default WTB 90-97 MIATA HARD TOP

I prefer to have rear defrost and in black but any other color will do.

I'll keep an eye out for you. How much are you looking to pay (average price is right around 1K right now if you didn't know) also there's a group buy going on for some aftermarket tops right now, ill try to find the info for you.

also, take this piece of advice, DO NOT park your car outside overnight w/ the hardtop on unless you've got a set of LOCKING latches or an extra grand anad the desire to replace your top again.

You'll have to buy a few odds and ends (like weather stripping, glass, etc...) but will still end up cheaper than a USED OEM top and it will be brand new.

You must not be a REAL Miata enthusiast if you're LOOKING for a rear defrost/headliner top over a non-defrost / hl top..that's like a 1/2 pound extra!!

Send me a PM with any other miata parts you need (sw you're looking for 90-97 parts) also if you find a nice black top w/o headliner/defrost, i'll trade you my good condition blck top with them.

Thanks for the info but I'm well aware of the cost of a used oem hard top. As for the rear defrost, it's more function over weight kinda thing. The group buy on the aftermarket hard top seems like a good deal if you have a nice hook up at the Mazda dealership for all the necessary parts ($400-$600). As for the trade, I think i would just keep whatever I find for now. And of course all latching hardware would be purchased before I install the hard top and I doubt any thieves would want to deal with my dog. I do infact need a few interior pieces (black) if you're parting a miata out.

Not necessarily parting one out, but I'm on my third miata so i obviously have lots of pieces and parts laying around....what exactly do you need out of the interior?
