Use that spot you were planning ... But ... use a bolt on D ring anchor can get them about 1.5" size or so
Or bend the fml to fit the bolt distance

He was looking to use the fml for a bikini tie down point
LOL. That was a pic I shot at Pick-n-pull a long time ago. I still have some screws and stuff on my rigs that are that (mixed) color.

You can attach the footman loops to the windshield frame using a combination of the sun visor mounting holes and the hole for the L bracket for the hardtop.
Loop the straps under the roll bar then forward to the windshield.
No extra holes required.

I couldn't find these either when I was looking. Went to Menards, Home Depot, and all the auto parts stores in town. First problem I had was that I didn't know what the hell it was called, so it took a lot of explaining and finally picture drawing. Still no luck and didn't want to wait to order some. I just bought a couple eye bolts for the time being. Glad I saw this, I'll probably go ahead and order some now.
I like that idea! Otherwise I may have to modify/mangle my existing footman loops!
dustinuhls the fit is not perfect, I will have to modify the ones I bought FWIW or go with brians unique idea......will look at it when I get home later
I was curious about that idea too. It would keeps the straps out of the rear passenger area, but I don't really want to take my sun visors off...
May modify my loop
This is where my footman loops are located for my bikini top.
OEM tap is M6 X 1.00. Cant find loop to fit so looks like I am going to have to get "ghetto" on my hooking point................
I tried finding the ones on Amazon but they were no longer available. I searched high and low and found these. They are almost exactly like OEM. The site has measurements so I compared to the ones on my truck. Only difference is they are a tad shorter in height. I went with stainless but plan on painting them. The picture makes them look a little off but they arent they look darn good in person.
