[QUOTE="Bundy, post: 569354, member: 13152"] I have a retro fitted roof so I don't have the brackets on the inside at the front. My roof used to lift slightly at the front in cross winds or passing a truck...scares the s**t outta you when you don't know what it is! Thinks its not helped by worn hinges... I fitted a smaller buckle style bonnet strap, but that doesn't tension enough, so it has a slice of bumpstop stuffed behind it now! Not that pretty, but stops it lifting ;) I did consider an adjustable metal clamp, but the angle and lack of fitting room make it a bit tricky. Cheers Al [/QUOTE]
