FAQs
What is included in the kit?
Each set includes two leather straps with chrome steel buckles and all the necessary fixings required for installation.
Can these be used for heavy-duty applications?
These fasteners are designed for securing car body panels, bonnets, or boots and are not intended for heavy-duty load-bearing applications.
How do I clean the leather straps?
Clean the leather straps with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using strong cleaning agents.
Are these suitable for all car models?
They are generally suitable for most vehicles where strap-based panel fasteners can be installed. Compatibility depends on the available mounting space and panel design.
What color are the buckles?
The buckles are made of chrome steel, giving them a bright, metallic finish.
How do I install them?
Installation involves attaching the strap ends to the vehicle and panel using the provided fixings. Ensure secure mounting before use.
Troubleshooting
Fasteners do not seem secure
Ensure all provided fixings are used and tightened correctly. Verify that the mounting points on the vehicle and panel are adequate and not damaged.
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner suitable for automotive use. Avoid over-conditioning, which can make the leather too soft.
Buckle is difficult to fasten or unfasten
Check for any obstructions or debris in the buckle mechanism. A very light application of a silicone-based lubricant might help, but use sparingly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These fasteners are supplied in pairs with all necessary fixings. Installation typically involves attaching one end of the strap to the vehicle body and the other to the panel being secured, using the provided hardware. Ensure you have the correct tools, such as a drill and appropriate wrenches, for mounting the fixings securely. Measure the desired placement carefully before drilling any holes.
Compatibility: Suitable for most car body panels, bonnets, and boots where a strap-based securing mechanism is feasible. Ensure sufficient space for the strap and buckle assembly.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of the leather, clean with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. The chrome steel buckles can be wiped clean with a dry cloth. Periodically check that all fixings remain tight.
