I'm making a list of miscellaneous parts I need.
Missing one of the little chrome pins that the top attaches to. Can't seem to find in the Moss or VB catelog. What's the proper name for these?
Also need an accelerator pedal.
Lots of other little tidbits too I'm sure.
Tonneau is torn at the corners. Fixable or better to just buy another? I imagine that I'll use it a lot since no attached top and leaving the interior wide open to the elements and thieves doesn't sound so good.

Are you talking about a male tenax fastener by any chance?
 
I was surprised to find that my local auto parts store had tenax fasteners... I guess they are also standard to some domestic cars.

Barring that, a boat upholstery & supply store might be your best bet, locally.
 
Any good hardware store, not one of the Big Box Stores will have Tenax fasteners in their boxes of nuts and bolts i nthe back of the store and again any shop that does boat upholstery will have as well.
