I was driving on the highway recently and my top pulled open, resulting in the first bow (and possibly the connections between the vehicle frame and the rear of the roof's frame) getting torqued and bent. This is a 2006 Touring Roadster. Very much sadness ensued. I've determined that the roof frame probably needs to be replaced, and I've seen a couple of complete top frames for sale, used. They tend to be from 2004 roadsters. The Nissan parts site lists slightly different part numbers from year to year (and even within year models). According to my VIN, I have 97150CF41A (which is superseded by 97150-CE36A), but no idea what the differences are.

Does anyone know if the roof frame is compatible between models?
Many thanks, love these forums!

I have a 2004 350Z Roadster. And bought the used roof assembly from a 2006, because mine was busted.
just bolt it in, and work like a charm!
