710K Hatch lock (?)

Post by Twebba »

So... Has anyone with a "K" ever come up with a good way to secure the hatch above the passenger seat?

The rubber bunjee just isn't cutting it for me. :roll:

I've tried shortening it, but the hatch still has a tendency to rattle a lot and occasionally lift up - especially when driving on a windy day.

I know you guys always come up with creative solutions, so I figured I'd ask around before re-inventing the wheel on this one.

TIA

I just took off one of the larger rubber strap that was at the back of my K on the wall and replace the one on the hatch with it. 8)

They are larger and shorter than the one up front. It works for me for more than a year now and i went through a lot of windy days. :D
