I got my new front windscreen canvas today but I forgot that I will need to install the snaps on the canvas. Looking for some info for which tool to use as I know some of you on here have had to do this before. There is a few different styles on Amazon I am sure they do the same thing.
I did find this video which is helpful. Not rocket science just never looked into it before

I ordered from PM Winter Covers and it took 3 weeks to get here, if anyone is wondering.

@Aqua_Aura I bought a kit like this, I actually used it today to add some snaps to my cockpit cover. I was surprised at how well they worked. You’ll also need a pair of hole punch pliers to punch the holes.

I'll post some pictures when I get the tool and use it just in case it should come up in the future for others.
