Rops netting
Talk about a GREAT son. My son gave me a complete set of netting, side panels and doors. Something I've been looking for for quite a spell. Only problem I have is there are no buckles with these.
Can anyone point me to a set of buckles for them? I know I need four (4) buckles but I don't have a clue as to where to find them.

We are talking about the standard, squarish 'alligator' clips like can be found on the soft top straps, right?
Re: Rops netting
Pretty sure he means the seat-belt style female buckles on "L"-shape metal supports, bolt to the uprights of the ROPS.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're right about that. Stupid me. I have this new acquisition taking up 75% of my brain's ability to process information at the moment.

Re: Rops netting
Yep, I need the four (4) seat-belt type buckles that mount on the two front legs of the ROPS. Getting them attached might prove to be quite a challenge as there's not a lot of space between the dash panel and the ROPS leg. I don't have any fireman's helmets but I'm willing to swap dead presidents for the buckles.

Re: Rops netting
Ok, I'm going to be installing the netting buckles in the next couple of weeks and I have just one more question for the forum. Should the buckle be inside or outside of the ROPS legs?
