I had the good fortune to purchase a factory tonneau thru an E Bay vendor this summer. After cleaning it up and trying to fit same I realise that it had shrunk about one inch over all.
I hung it in my garage all summer with weights suspended from it to try to stretch it back into size. I was somewhat successfull but man, it's just a little shy of being the right size.
As I need to replace the zipper can anyone offer suggestions about a replacement zipper and the thought of adding an inch using asome extra material? Anyone know of a source for the black with white canvas backed material as well as the zipper?
The only other option thjat I can think of is cutting the tonneau and stitching in a body coloured insert material similar to a racing stripe. In this case a red cross strip into a black tonneau. (not my favorite option btw)
Thanks in advance!
