Tools & Accessories

Used on top snaps , side curtain zippers, convertible top boot snaps, plastic window zippers and any other snaps and zippers which are exposed to the elements.

Just one light application protects against corrosion, reduces wear and friction, prevents binding and repels salt spray and deposits. Safe on all types of metal snaps and both metal and plastic zippers.

This 40-page, extensively illustrated how-to manual walks you through removing and installing any two-part convertible top. The manual applies to almost all American convertibles made before the year 2004, and some foreign cars, too, like Celicas and Saabs. This 8 1/2 x 11 book is designed as both a tutorial for first-time installers and as a step-by-step manual for these convertible tops. Generally, all that is needed and not contained is the "bow height" which is the setting of the rear top frame bow for your convertible. This is available from any top distributor ot can be measured with the old top on the car (as illustrated.)

What skills are required ? (1) The ability to drive staples into bow frame tacking strips (2) The ability to orient fabric sections to the frame and apply with contact cement. (3) A systematic and careful personality ! (There is never any sewing required.)

Note: Very early cars (forties) had wood bows and installers will have to adjust processes for stapling to these bows instead of tacking strips in steel bows as described in manual.

Fits all 13mm nuts. Use on Bug, Bus, Karmann Ghia.

This carburetor wrench is just like the original Hazet version that the dealerships used. It fits all 13mm nuts (so 25/36hp guys are stuck since those carbs have 14mm). A nice tool for lots of other 13mm nuts that are tucked away.
