Do you mean the tonneau cover or the hood cover?

When I replaced my hood back in 1996 I went for Mohair because it just looked better than other options. This was from S&S when they had their main fabricator available (since retired) and was/is great quality. A friend even had his bespoked with thicker (tinted) rear window and different colour interior. Not sure you can do this with vinyl.

Cheers.

Sorry not very clear I have two sets of press studs on the black strips of metal, one set for the roof side windows and one set for the roof cover.

Only a single set on mine, both the roof and hood cover use the same studs.

I have started fitting the roof,it looks like the roof press studs have been put on in the wrong places so they put another set of studs on the car, i have put them on the new roof at the right spacing so i have the option of replacing the trim strips and reverting back to one set.

vinyl on mine also and no problems.......

I have a spare pair of them, in good (but not perfect) shape. Shipping could be a bit much, but you are welcome to them. Send me an email.

Thanks for the offer but I think you are right the delivery would be to expensive, a pair have just been sold on Ebay for £11+P&P I will be going to Stoneleigh in March which is a massive triumph only auto-jumble, hopefully I should get a pair their but if not I will be in touch.
Thanks again
