Where to buy a soft top strap for the "Ears" Issue

Post by JWJ0121 »

Hi everyone,

I've figured out how to fix the ears issue with the soft top, but after feeding through the strap and wrapping around the correct pole and connecting, one of the buttons appears to be broken meaning I can't connect the strap properly.

Does anyone know where I can buy/find this type of strap? Massive pain and i've been trying to get the ears fixed for a while now.

The button often get squashed if it comes undone. They are a press stud with velcro around to try to keep it in place.

One of my buttons was squashed so I opened it up with a pair of pliers so it would sit back over the stud and then sewed through the strap to hold it in place as the velcro just doesnt seem to hold them on.

Worth trying to see if this would work for you first.
