Default Need a convertible part...Please help
Ok here is my problem. I was doing some top speed runs, and I guess doing 160+mph makes things fall off. This little plastic piece on the side of the rag top is what i'm after. I've searched all over google and can't find anything. Anyone know where I can get it?

Close up


Here is a shot from far away


And this is the opposite side. (What it should look like)

Hey thanks alot...Are you 100% sure this is it? Because there isn't really a description, and i'd hate to spend that much on the wrong thing.

You could run down to the dealership and ask what the part # is to really be sure.

just checked and the part#s I listed are for hardtop,t top.
I cant see any difference held up next to the one on my convertible
but if its a different part# then it is different. I came up with the same part (10286318)for the RH. Left side is 10286319.

damn that piece, i too had the same problem. I went to the junkyard and got one from a coupe. I think i had to trim it a little, but it was only like 7 bucks instead of 88 or whatever they wanted for it.
