Looks like you've found the right solution! I wish I came across this thread 2 years ago, before I ordered those plastic straps which by all accounts won't work properly. I've tried molding some urethane rubber parts before using Smooth on products but found that bubbles form too easily in the material. Seems that a pressure chamber is required to eliminate this issue....did you not have this problem?

That's a great idea! I'll try that with the passenger side strap.

Resurrecting an old thread here....but I was curious as to how the strap is holding out? I'm still looking at one my plastic repro strap and one rubber repro strap and contemplating the next steps on these.
