What are these straps for (roadster)?

There are velcro straps on the panel behind the seats. Does anyone know what they are for?

If you notice, there are metal tabs slipped under the plastic on the car side of the strap. Those are from the soft wind mesh deflector. I did not realize they were velcroed on. I would assume the previous owner had one.

Those are for the wind deflector! I am actually missing two straps, if I pay shipping would you send 'em my way if you don't need 'em?

Yes, these are the damn metal clips that the former owner of my car scraped the velour off the seat backs with, when putting the deflector on and off .............. apparently was too lazy to toggle the seat forward to allow enough room to safely hook them. I have two nice areas, one on each seat, where the fabric is worn down to the plastic on both headrests sections. As a result I will be replacing the seat backs with new ones in about a month
