Elastic Strap tutorial
#23
I was to afraid of poking through my top with a drill or other tools. I decided that I was going to make some straps out of black velcro and elastic that would loop completly around the two bows. Them I could use the velcro to adjust the tension more or less if needed. Tonight I was in Dollar Tree and happened to walk down the aisle where the keep cell phone cases and cords. They had black arm band cell phone holders for when your running exercising. I bought 2 and removed the stitching that held the phone pouch to the elastic and velcro arm band. went out to my Z and put both on over the existing worn out straps tightened them to what I thought would work. To my my surprise my top went down with me having to push the band back while the top was going down. Total cost for the fix $2.12 with tax and 5 minutes to remove the stitching from the phone pouch and a five minutes to put them on the car and test the top! Don't know how long they will last but for $2.12 who cars i will buy another set and do it again!
