914.559.017/8.10 Left and right "cover plates"
We have been working on these for awhile. You can now get the German sail vinyl and the chrome strips for $74 69. I will sell just the chrome strips for $36 34.
Added in the protective film and actually was able to reduce the price some. Pretty sure most everyone can use a set of the metal ends.

No we are workingon those, but they are still a way out. The tooling is a bit complicated.
These are the parts we have also added protective covers for the strips as these get boogered up pretty easily taking the roof off and on.

also including protective film for these as they are in a place that is easy to scratch up.
Easy to apply
Wet with soappy water
Apply film
Use plastic edge to press water out.
Use heat gun to wrap extra under
I superglue the edges and use a metal edge to press in.

And you can combine with roof holders and another GB we are about to open.

That picture caused a flashback to my old neighborhood in the fifties. My neighbor had a couch covered like that. You didn't dare sit in it in the summer.

Just bought a set. I need to replace mine as I think they are the originals but I'm a bit anxious about removing the various trim pieces.....
Mikey914
Jan 13 2018, 01:28 PM
The hardest part of replacing the vinyl is to remove the roll bar pad. The screws tend to strip and if you are not careful you would have to drill out. Suboptimal at best. Use a #1 phillips for those.
The metal strips can be done without removing the roll bar pad.

Need a set of those strips please. The original ones looked crappy when I replace the vinyl with yours.

Click to view attachmentIt seems to me that the most important part to reproduce would be the bottom strip, the one that is not in this picture because it was thrown away 20 years ago when the vinyl was removed and the holes filled in.

Jan 16 2018, 10:58 PM
Actually, yes we are working on it and the retainer clips that are stupid expensive.
