Designed to fit all 2000-2005 model year Eclipse Sypder convertibles. This high quality convertible top will keep your car looking its absolute finest. Includes a new tinted glass window and is made from a heavier than sailcloth Trilogy Acoustic Vinyl.
ABOUT THE WINDOW
New DOT rated glass window is bonded into the rear window section. From the exterior, the edge around the window has a clean, finished appearance with no piping needed to hide stitching, gluing or imperfections that may arise from other bonding methods. The fabric has been carefully notched by a computer controlled cutter around the radius to ensure proper adhesion around the entire perimeter to eliminate potential leaking. The technology is unique and protected by worldwide patents and we guarantee the bond to the original purchaser for the life of the vehicle.
ABOUT THE FABRIC
We developed this superior vinyl material to be heavier, quieter, more durable and more flexible than other vinyls. It is an acoustically enhanced vinyl with a twill (cloth-like) pattern and 100% polyester backing for superior strength and longevity.

ABOUT TRILOGY ACOUSTIC VINYL
Trilogy Acoustic Vinyl was developed specifically to provide a high quality, long lasting topping material suitable for most types of removable soft tops. Trilogy has superior performance characteristics compared to other vinyl toppings and the surface texture was designed to look just like expensive twill cloth topping found on luxury vehicles like Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Bentley and Rolls Royce.
TRILOGY is QUIET
TRILOGY Acoustic Vinyl is a 45oz heavy weight two ply composite. Sounds impressive but what this really means for you is REDUCED NOISE! In comparative tests, TRILOGY Acoustic Vinyl was shown to significantly reduce interior noise. Quite simply, tops made with TRILOGY Acoustic Vinyl will provide the quietest, most comfortable ride for you and your family.
TRILOGY is DURABLE
Trilogy Acoustic Vinyl is not just a pretty face. It is a 2 ply composite material with a heavy duty outer layer of PVC and a 100% Polyester laminated backing. Polyester is much stronger than cotton or poly/cotton blends when it comes to abrasion and tearing. Also polyester resists rot and mildew. Polyester is so superior in fact, it is the only material specified for use in all European luxury convertibles.
TRILOGY is GREAT LOOKING
TRILOGY Acoustic Vinyl was designed not only to be the strongest most durable topping vinyl available, but to be the best looking as well. The outer surface of the topping duplicates the twill weave pattern of expensive cloth toppings used in the most exclusive automobiles such as Aston Martin, Rolls Royce, Maserati and Ferrari. Either as a direct replacement for your original cloth top or as a fantastic upgrade from an existing vinyl top, TRILOGY Acoustic Vinyl is the best looking most affordable alternative.
