I'm replacing the top on my 97 NA and found the plastic piece that the tensioning cable runs through (can't find the part number) on the left side, broken from the pop rivet boss. Does anyone have an old non functioning frame that I can remove this part from. I'm having trouble posting picture, but will do as soon as I figure it out!
I have a top frame in my shed. I think the cables and everything are still intact, but i'd have to check. Might just be easier to use a different frame instead of trying to re-install the cables.
I've got the cables just need this last little part. I guess you won't sell just this little part off the frame so how much for the whole top frame.
Crimp one of these on the end of the tension cable...if I think I know what part you're looking for.

Are you talking about the little black square that the rivet goes through? It is a part of the tension cables.

Well I bought my top frame for a 24pack of Budweiser...so I guess a sixer of some good stuff will do ;)
jiggerachi...you are correct. I sent a pm to you with a jpeg. Let me know how i can get the part and I'll pick it up. I don't partake of the brew but let me know what you like and i'll have get it to ya.
