I will have to come up with fasteners screwed to the underside of my wind blocker bought from LBCARCO. Maybe lift-the-dot fastener and studs will do. Meanwhile, a 1 inch pvc pipe is doing the job. I enjoy mine so much may never put up the top in SW Florida as the car is in the garage during the rainy season.</span></p><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial, sans-serif;color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial, sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">Bob Begani </span></p><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial, sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">67 BJ8</span></p><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial, sans-serif;color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><div><div style="border-color: rgb(225, 225, 225) currentcolor currentcolor; border-style: solid none none; border-width: 1pt medium medium; padding: 3pt 0in 0in;"><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"><b>From:</b> Healeys <healeys-bounces@autox.team.net> <b>On Behalf Of </b>banjojohn<br><b>Sent:</b> Monday, May 18, 2020 8:14 PM<br><b>To:</b> healeys@autox team. net <healeys@autox.team.net><br><b>Subject:</b> [Healeys] Wind blocker</p></div></div><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"> </p><div><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;">Hi all</span></p></div><div><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;">A while back there was a thread abour wind blockers, and I asked about where I could find a picture.

I used the drain hole brackets down in the body just behind the doors as sockets to put the 5/16 steel rods into. I bent the rod to get the right angles to hold the bottom frame down against the tonneau support frame and added a couple straps with snaps that could snap to the snaps already on the tonneau to make sure it doesnt come loose. The bottom frame is made of 2 pieces of 3/4 × 1 oak with a piece of oak cove moulding attached to the bottom of the front one to fit over the tonneau frame rail. The "glass" is a piece of 1/8" lexan 9" x 38" sandwiched between the 2 oak pieces. I made mine 38 inches wide so it can be stowed on or under the parcel shelf whan not in use.</span></p></div><div><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"> </p></div><div><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"> </p></div><div><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"> </p></div><div id="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449composer_signature"><div><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;color:#575757;">Sent from my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S10e.</span></p></div></div><div><p class="ydpec6d5767yiv2204125449MsoNormal"> </p></div></div></div></div>_______________________________________________<br>Support Team.Net <a href="http://www.team.net/donate.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/donate.html</a><br>Suggested annual donation $12.75<br><br>Archive: <a href="http://www.team.net/pipermail/healeys " rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/pipermail/healeys </a><a href="http://autox.team.net/archive" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://autox.team.net/archive</a><br><br><a href="mailto:Healeys@autox.team.net" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Healeys@autox.team.net</a><br><a href="http://autox.team.net/mailman/listinfo/healeys" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://autox.team.net/mailman/listinfo/healeys</a><br><br>Unsubscribe/Manage: <a href="http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/healeys/healeyray@yahoo.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/healeys/healeyray@yahoo.com</a><br><br></div>
