Spare rubbing on the hardtop will crack the fiberglass from vibration over time.Youll notice spider cracking until a big crack happens. Also the hardtop will do NOTHING in a rollover. Its fiberglass...

Gingium, you could get bolts for the trunk that have thread all up and down the bolt, and put a nut on each to hold them in place, rather than welding it to the trunk lit. as in bolt them to the truck by putting a nut on each, tightening it all the way down to the trunk, and then using the lugnuts to re-attach the tire. then you wouldnt even have to weld it, or pop the trunk to re-attach it

+Gingium You can use all thread rods, sealing washers and a locking nut on the top and bottom of the deck lid. This would secure the "bolts" on to the deck lip and eliminate the need to open it up to remove the spare tire and prevent water from getting in to the trunk.

Dude just but nuts on the bolts thats holding the spare down, so the bolt and nut will hold the bolts to the trunk, and the lugnuts will hold the spare on. That way you can remove it when you dont want it anymore, instead of welding it permanently on

When you mount your lights on the roof mount them far enough back that the light doesn't hit your hood. I think it's called Hood glare. I think there's also visors you can put under them that work as well.

Yeah, but he wants to add a roll-cage AND an exo-cage which will make it safer, but will also make it MUCH heavier. This makes the weight advantage a miata has over a jeep smaller and thus, worse for off-roading. God knows the miata is terrible offroading otherwise.

Look into MIG welders. Theyre are pretty straight foward and the easiest to get the hang of. Gas MIGS are more expensive that Electric MIG, but they (in my opinion) work a little better but not worth the extra money. Do not buy the cheapest welder!!
