Soft top Handles

Have any of you guys purchased or seen the new handles that stay in the Top? I think that Performance products sells them. Great idea as it beats rumbling around in the glove box looking for the regular ones every time I put up or take down the top! Just wondering how they look???

They look good. And it is nice not having to find the tool to pop the top. I haven't had any problems with them rattling or falling out.

These seem like a good idea, especially as my M-B dealer wants £27 (over $40!!!) for one replacement handle. I'm based in the UK, could someone please post a contact address where I might get a set from.

Thanks

Scroll through his items until you find them. Other people are selling them on eBay now also.

This guy has them also:

Both ship internationally.

File a complaint with Paypal....you should be able to get your money back. Especially if you used a credit card.

I did and they said that they will try but they will not guarantee a refund. The guy at Global never answered my calls, he is a thief.
