Default part help

I am looking for the 4 "Velcro" pieces that go on the pillar post that the interior trim attaches to.

I looked on the various product sites I use to buy stuff and I found some for the T-tops, and the door panels. I tend to remember the T-tops and doors were larger than the pillar posts ones, plus the posts are riveted. I did see it in a blowup of the pillar on the paragon catalog, but it didn't have a part number.

Any help in finding these would be appreciated.

Eddie.

Eddie,
You can find these used....should not be a problem in having someone drill out the rivets and send them to you.

If you have a problem in finding or getting them...PM me...I can help you out.

I believe Willcox has some that are oval, and listed as being for the T-Tops, but they should be about the same size, and should work for the pillars. They have the 2 holes in them for the rivets.

I bought new A pillar molding and they had the same connectors as the T Top liners.

thanks, I will look at those.

I know I would not have thrown these away, when I took them off originally. but like so many parts, it has been a hunt
