[JOC IN IL]

I found this strap when I put the top in service position in the left side of the gutter just lying there. Bottom of the grey strap is attached to left corner bottom of the convertible to and I have no idea where the other end attaches to the top. Any one know where the other end of the strap attaches to the top?

also my top on exactly same spots on both sides where folds are fraying severely and i'm afraid it will wear though in no time.When I first bought the car in 5 months ago it wasn't worn this bad now since i used the top often it's worn quite a bit. Is this normal? I read one post this guy was having the problem but never posted update if he found the problem and mentioned possibly from tension cable.

Any input will be appreciated.
