who sells the hardtop locking tools, and how much? I put on my hardtop today- first time in 5 years. Had to use screwdriver to turn locking nut.I quess I'll have to spend Sunday adjusting my window glass to the hardtop!

Both Gernold and Roy Spencer sell these handles with a pouch. They each have them advertised for $395.00. One set just sold for $135.49 plus shipping. Which was a very good price! A cheaper alternative would be the W107 handles. These are always up for auction on ebay.

This is what these handles look like:
You can also use a piece of flat bar 1/8 x 3/4 and machine it to fit. The width is critical because there is a small ball backed by a spring. The travel of the ball is small. It retains the handle and if your handle is a little too narrow, it will not be retained.
