Californian hardtop to body gadget?
« on: February 18, 2009, 09:34:23 »
I've got a Californian Coupé and the other day I've seen another coupé with a gadget that holds the hardtop to the body. Do any of you know about this gadget and where I can buy one? My car has only the one piece that hangs from the hardtop and the bracket that's mounted on the body behind the rear bench seat. The middle part is missing. Attached is a photo, sorry about the poor quality though!

The one in the picture is not mine, it's only an example how it's suppose to look. Mine is incomplete though! I need to find out where one will still get them? Here in South Africa it's not available. Any help will be appreciated.

I will take a pic on monday to verify we both talk about the same item.

I´m afraid You cannot buy the middle part only, but the cpl. hook incl.
adjustment screw.

I think we talk about the same thing and I also thought that you must buy the whole thing, which I won't mind doing, if it's still available. Do you know of a place selling these?

Off topic, but anyone fitted a child seat to a California coupe?

You don't need a child seat. If they are small, just lay them down on the seat and flop the backrest over them. ;D
