I realize this is an old thread, but if anyone is still looking for a great solution (for cheap) I just bought six "Thermo-plastic Handle on 1in Black Tubular Nylon Webbing" for $3.75ea from strapworks.com and received them three days after ordering - great quality, and now I'm loving the handles (front, rear and seat).
Thanks for the thread!!

After buying them, the guy from the company emailed me because I explained why I was buying them.
He said he just got a big shipment, and is going to decrease the price of shipping a little (at least, that's what he told me). He said he was wondering where this huge run on them came, but apparently someone from here called him a couple days ago as well.

You should ask where's the royalties for turning their product into an official JEEP piece.. Great findings

Rugged Ridge sells nearly the same thing for only $20 off quadratec
http://www.quadratec.com/products/55012_910X_PG.htm
I bought some and i saw on the directions though no need, it showed there is a place to put them in the front which is in the top corners of the windshield. There are a few bolts up there that you can mount them but they could block vision....? Any pictures of this?

Just wanting to say thanks to German and folks who have pics of this in that thread and this one- what a great mod. I did this with only a small pocketknife to remove the velcro straps and make the bolt holes and a socket wrench; 10 minutes, looks great, works perfectly.

I bought the RR ones and had the driver side come out of the "pre-set" ring. Ripped right over the washer... I'll take pics tonight. FYI: I'm only 160 lbs and I was just getting in.
Other than that one, the other three are solid.
Any RR guys here wanna help me with a replacement?
