Hi guys,

I would like to ask Can a elise's softtop fit on the exige s'? if not how much will cost the modification to be done? and how much is the elise's soft top cost?

Thanks

BF.

It will fit, and I think the conversion is about £700 from B&C, but I'm not sure it's recommended on an S due to the reduce air flow to the supercharger.

No it (allegedly) reduces airflow to the intercooler (supercharger gets its air through the air intake...). And it will be negligible.

Buy a second hand short-tail Elise soft top (circa £350) then get the two grommets for the soft top bars from B&C for about £12, then fit the grommets to the roll-over bar of the Exige (requires measuring and drilling of bodywork...) and voila you have a soft-top Exige.

Good thread from Lotus talk if you search google for "Exige soft top" or something similar.
