Tabs holding hardtop down

Pretty sure you'll have to make them. I assume you are talking about the captured nuts under the bed rail?
IIRC they are just a square nut inside a spot welded metal cage.
Could always check LMC.

Thank you
Sorry I dont have better news for you. Most good hardware stores still sell square nuts. With the internet could probably find any you need as well.
Pretty easy to make your own with some bar stock and tap, if you have to go that route.

Electrical supply stores should have square nuts,they are often used in that trade--also on Uni-Strut and shelving ..shouldn't be hard to get locally..
I have half a 5 gallon pail of 5/16" course thread square nuts left over from assembling my quonset garage--I build wooden end walls ,so I didn't need a lot of what came with it..

Lowe's and Home Depot also carry Uni Strut or Power Strut stuff. Ace Hardware might back in their mystery box section.
I seem to remember them more like a strap, longer than a square. My memory could be getting rusty but I will check tomorrow when I go work on it.
