Hi,
So I need to get a new top and the '79 Midget uses this funky velcro
tab(?) to attach the top at the front quarter by the window... mine
are shot/non-existum and I question the long term effectiveness at
holding a shrinking/expanding top anyway and I am thinking about
placing posts at those points and fitting an older top, but I could be
convinced otherwise on the sanity of both these points.
Well, after a limited amount of shopping I have not found a source for
the replacement velcro bits ... so it is looking like the posts and I
think I would rather replace them with a tenax connector anyway. So
the questions follow:
Can one (easily) get into that area to put in a machine threaded post
or would a sheet metal thread be easier. Another option is I found a
plate held by two sheet metal screws with a post centered.
I am thinking given where the post needs to go a sheet metal threaded
one may be the best option. Thoughts from the group? Also anyone know
where I can source just two of these posts? I don't need 10 and I
don't need both the post and pull.
Thanks,
-m
