can't, they wont sell it seperately. I basically use a thin strip of velcro that fits that.
If we can find someone to build it and do a group order or something..

I have two straps that I found after thoroughly inspecting my car shortly after buying it in July. I'm pretty sure that they came from a wind deflector that was purchased by the original owner.
I'm currently on vacation, back on Saturday night, so I can take a picture of what I've got and measure them some time next week. They probably won't mail well in a regular envelope but a small Jiffy mailer (bubble padded bag) would probably work. Let me see if what I've got is what you guys need and we'll figure out how I can get them to you (with a massive profit to me of course! JK!)

I bet an upholstery place (or even a tailor) could make up a new strap pretty cheaply, if the above person doesn't have the right strap. The dealer will rape you for a whole new deflector I bet.

I tried to PM you but you have apparently disabled private messaging as the option did not come up for me.

can you measure your strap and put a ruler on it ? I have access to machine shop, I think I can make those metal end and cut the hole for the strap loop and get the velcro sew on. Of course paint them black.

To turn on Private Messaging, click on the "User CP" link above. Click on "Edit Options". Scroll down to "Messaging and Notifications", "Private Messaging", and make sure that the "Enable Private Messaging" checkbox is checked. To make sure that you know when you've received a PM, check the two boxes "Receive Email Notification..." and "Show New Private Message...". I want to make sure that the straps that I have is the one that you want. The strap that you have highlighted looks like an adjustable strap and is on the end or side of the windscreen. I don't have the windscreen so I don't know if the straps are all the same or not, but the straps I have came from the middle. rsutoratosu has spoken for the second one. tenman has also requested one, if you don't take the first one. rsutoratosu, the strap alone is ~7.25" long and ~7/8" wide but is folded over and stitched adding about another 0.5" although the amount of overlap is probably not critical. Overall length of the strap and metal hook is ~8.5". Each Velcro patch is ~2.5" long. The metal hook is ~1-3/8" long from the bend to the long end. The length of the bent over portion is ~5/8" long. The width is ~1-1/8". The size of the hole is probably not critical as long as the strap fits through and the overall length of the hook and strap is correct. FYI, I'm leaving on an out-of-town trip tomorrow morning and won't be back until Tuesday next week, I have a bunch of stuff to get done by tonight, so I have to put this on hold until then.

Hi SD Z4MR
I got this msg when I log in. Looks like I haven't posted enough to earn the privilige to use PM "Thank you for verifying your account. In order to use the PM system, you will have to have 5 posts under your belt and wait 24-48 hours after the 5th post before your account is upgraded. " Anyway, the strap shown in you picture will work for me. I only need one. Please send me an email and we can work out the details. Thanks, --David |

thanks, im going into the shop sunday, ill see what metal I can use, yeah hole size isn't important, as long as I can cut one and get the strap through and sew velcro on it. I might end up using a long velcro strip to sew in instead of a regular strap with velcro on it

Its funny how those straps go missing, I kept my web wind screen and the dealership transfered to the M and managed to loose 2 straps. Luckly they did not hurt anything and you can not tell they are missing unless you knew they were gone.
If anyone else comes up with a couple that doesnt need them I would be interested in two. Regards.

The second strap is ready to go as soon as I get a reply to the PM I send earlier today requesting your address. Shipping will be the same $1.95 First Class to Chicago and again, I'm not going to sweat it. Sorry it took so long for me to get a chance to send these out!

Sorry for bump up the old thread, but how do you strap the thing in place? I am missing the two straps also, but people say it will still fit snuggly without them.
