What material do I use for the top straps?

Postby clarkerussell » Tue 27.08.2013, 04:09

Hello all,

I need to replace the top straps on my car and while there are plenty of how-to's on the subject, there is not any information on the actual material that is used or where to get it. Can someone help point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance!

Hi Clarke,

I'm assuming you are referring to the straps inside the soft-top.

I used 2" wide black elastic which is available from any Haberdashery store.

LGM on the other-hand has used seat-belt material.

The instructions for fitting are somewhere among my posts.
