My Convertible hood is ok but far from great. Could really do with renewal.

In the meantime id like to see if a can remedy some its issues.

Since its been stored for most the last 3 years under the hardtop, it seems to have pulled the fabric on the passengers side to the center of the roof by a few cm. Both tensioners are broken and non existent. Seems to have been removed by previous owner.

I am aware that new tensioner cables can be bought new but wondered if these would actually pull the cloth back in the way and have it back where its meant to be.

As good a pictures as I can find at the moment.
