Convert wind flap

[stall]

On my 90 Convertible everything runs pretty much as it should  so no need for the expert tech people on-site.  My issue is just an annoyance.

 

On the Verts there is a flap that simply closes off the airflow to the rear when the top is up and the windows are open. it's secured by Velcro that always seems to lossen up and let the flap , flap.

 

Has anyone in the community had this [problem, where you able to cotrrect it?

A lot of people have 2 snaps installed there

That's what I did. I installed the snaps. Not that hard to do yourself, just get a snap kit from big box hardware store, Walmart, Amazon and do it yourself.

yep snaps solves the problem,  The down side to the snaps is if you plan to have your car judged at a National meet there would be a deduction but it is not a big deal

Hi Guys, 

Thanks for all the suggestions; I think i tripped onto another.

In Home Depot, they have a magnet section by the screws and nuts. i saw a Latch Magnet kit for cabinets and tried it.  you fasten a 5/8 diameter magnet with the furnished 

small screw inside of the fabric flap so the magnet hits the metal pieces. the little screw sticks out a bit on the flap side that shows; i covered it with a 4-40 thread cap-nut. 

 

the magnets are 16 pound pull and the whole thing works great
