Convertible boot fitment

[Shmaako]

I've ordered a boot from Legendary interiors. The flaps do not come down to catch the snaps on my rear door panels. They suggest that factory panels didnt have those snaps.

I have included a third pic showing my current boot, although worn and old, still fitting far better than the proposed new boot form Legendary.

Please let me know if the flaps are supposed to come down and catch a lower snap on the door panel or if it is an aftermarket addition.

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure the boot fits between the interior panel and the convertible top frame, there is a clip on the boot that when you install it this way hooks the top frame.
I have seen people tuck it between the seat and the panel, I just didn't like that and the clip, the clip is there for a reason.

I'd say the extra snap was added sometime later.

This is what they sent...does not look good imo I'm not sure I get what you mean regarding a 'clip'. It looks like you just tuck it under which does look better.

What Al said.

The OEM cover fits exactly as in Al's photo

This picture with the white interior shows the boot trying to tuck between the seat and the side panel, it just doesn't fit.

In the wing on the backside there is a clip.
