Was going to ask if you whacked it as per the instructions.

I have a 28 Degrees MasterCard for all foreign currency purchases.

No conversion fees and you get the better rate.

Don't let Amazon do the conversion - they are almost as bad as PayPal when it comes to exchange rate thievery.

Amazon wanted $36.16 and Mastercard came in at $34.94 which is over 3% saving.

I wish I had seen an option to not use paypal conversion when I bought my exhaust on ebay as 3% on that would have been a nice saving!

My visa came in at A$34.68

Could someone who hasn't installed theirs yet, or someone who doesn't mind removing it, please measure the diameter of the push pin and/or the eyelet in the strap for me? Going to make one of these soon and just want to check which size grommet to use for snug fit.

NZ Stang has these for 29.63 AUD by paypal (includes delivery) .

Yeh been thinking of going the DIY route too. Call me stingy, but can't justify $30 for a tiny strap lol.

You can remove the plastic screw pretty easily from the boot, just pull it out. There you can get the measurement pretty easily. But I'd like a close up at what screw they are using to keep the strap in without it popping out.
edit: Actually nevermind. Found the image from the trading section.

Eyelet diameter is 10mm:

Yeah but I need my car to do that and it's still waiting for a ship LOL.

Going to be making some straps and other things so thought I may as well do this one while I've got everything out and I'm fabric welding. Already have everything I need so wouldn't buy one regardless of price. Even considering doing one in leather rather than webbing.

Eyelet diameter is 10mm:

Much appreciated :cheers:

Hey guys, there has to be an option to get my hands on one of these from Australia... hate the way, would rather pay extra and get one from a shop or even an au seller. Has anyone had any luck in finding a au seller or even something I can guy from another car that might fit...
