Looks like a few got really stretched out when I was fighting with the cover in the wind the other day. The white little elastic loops that go around the posts on the rear of the cover. Went to the local FW dealer and he said they dont sell them seperate (they are never very helpful with parts), anyone know where to get a few of them?

I found an old thread on another forum that showed a placed to buy them but they are gone, didnt see anything on the westmarine website. Local canvas guy hasnt been returning calls..

Didnt think of eBay, those look a little different than the ones on there but I'll just replace all of them.

Thanks guys.

If you go direct through sailrite you can get them in black as well.

Mine are white, I just picked up the ebay ones since I had some money in my paypall account, may as well use it up - 6 is what I need.

I got mine at local boat, tent/awning shop.

amazon and ebay are alway good shopping places for the hard to find items as well.

No help to you guys but my FW dealer always has them in stock. I don't know where they source them but they look like the FW OEM parts.

HellO!
I also have the same problem.
How do you take the ones off from the original covers?
Thanks

Sorry to resurrect older thread, but I too was wondering how you remove the older white plastic caps that attach the white elastics to the cover. If anyone has some pearls of wisdom on this I sure would be grateful.
Thanks
Nick

I keep spares in tool box. If I remember correctly I used a small screw driver to separate the two halves and then disassemble
