Title: Spyder frame soft top tension straps Post by: Clifford on February 07, 2022, 09:58:03 PM Hi all.
I am refurbishing my Spyder's hood frame and need to replace the tensioning straps. Does anyone have any sources for these webbing straps? I am not sure whether this is special webbing because of the nature of what job it is doing or any old webbing will do? Also I have seen cars with buckles of some description and one with velcro fastening for the adjusting the tension. Does anyone know what the original straps adjusters were like and where I might source the webbing and adjusters please?

Presumably you gave them the width and lengths and had them make them up ready for pop riveting onto the frame? C Title: Re: Spyder frame soft top tension straps Post by: WestonE on February 08, 2022, 04:04:02 PM Hi Clifford
