Targa top question

I've noticed that around the rear clips (inserted into the mounting holes on the roll bar) for the top there are plastic bezels that I'm guessing are used to reduce noise. One of mine is missing. Where can I get these?

there was a thread on how to install these not too long ago; I'll see if I can find it.
Grease the pin lightly, slip the cover over it then heat it up with a hair dryer or a paint stripper 'gun'. Slides right on.

Targa77,

Did you see that post by Peter Stey in August about the Targa Top installation instructions?

He sent a copy to me (2 megs pdf file). They are quite clear with a lot of pictures.

Makes me want to try it next year. (I just got my engine completely rebuilt!)

I recently installed new covers myself using the hot water and lube method, but also used a 7/16 deep well socket slipped over the cover . The socket catches the little shoulder on the end and gives more push on the leading edge for easier installation.

I posted the original question in the link above. The hot water treatment that Warren suggested works wonders!
