Convertible hood cover buttons

[Silvergreen]

Hi there
I have 2001 Z3 3.0. The car is supplied with a colour coded hood cover which covers the hood fabric and mechanisum when the doon is down. Hopefully my description is enough for you guys to know what I am talking about. Anyway there should be four little metal buttons to hold the cover in place. However, on mine, only one clip works, two give up the struggle way to easily and the fourth one is missing all together. Are these buttons available please, hopefully in the UK?

Thank you

Nope ..nla.

have them if you have friends in Germany that can ship them. Could try other brands to see if they work e.g Porsche

Or you could buy another tonneau cover. @RickyBobby has one for sale.

Get yourself ready for the show season with the quintessential accessory to hide your roof. This one's in great condition with the advantage of adjustable tonneau clips (early versions were fixed) which all function as intended. Forum price is £110 collected from Sheffield before it is...

Would these be ok? There are metric https://amzn.eu/d/aFJNMjJ a bit on the pricey side though.

The ones I got from Germany were the best part of £35 I see to remember

They are available in Germany @ tenax24.de but they are overpriced and the shipping is ridiculous given the UK is now non EU. I am sure somebody on here recently had the same question and sourced them in the UK. The screws should be readily available in the UK however you would need to section some plastic tubing or pipe, exact size can be taken from another Z3 if you can get access. The buttons that sit on the cover is a different matter however. The size of the screw is 4.2mm x 27mm you then need the plastic collar.
