After having a new top installed (by a pro) it turns out that the boot cover retainer strip is missing. This strip fastens to the top of the back seat support and provides a channel for a rubber strip at the front of the boot cover to snap in. I am unable to find this part. Any help will be appreciated. Is there an easy alternative?

Thanks,
Kent

Good luck! I have been searching for over a year. I've been thinking of making one out of piano wire.

Give this guy a call; he has acres of old mustangs and pretty good prices. He got me my 9" rear housing for $300 and vert window glass for $200.
