[Healeys] Installing a Robbins canvas top

[BJ8 Healeys]

Hello, Healeyphiles -
 
A question from a BJ8 owner:  has anyone personally installed a Robbins
canvas top on their BJ8?  The barbed clips that are used with the vinyl top
around the rear edge to attach it to the channel apparently will not work
with the Robbins top because the material is too thick.  If that is true,
anybody know the solution?
 
Thanks,
