I am trying to source the small bimini strap attachment point on my 08 sx 230... The small eye that is bolted to the deck where the bimini straps click onto when fully opened. I can find a lot of them but they are all too big. I would like to get an exact replacement part so I don't have to drill holes. The total over all length is 1 1/2 inches. The smallest I found was 1 3/4 over all length. Anyone?
 
Looks like you can order OEM. This is from partzilla.com.

Let me peruse my parts bin, what is the hole center to center distance?

You right the "standard" ones are a little bigger. I can send you a couple of those right now, would get those by Wedn probably, just PM me an address, maybe you could do some "convincing" in a metalworking vice...

Thanks but... Sadly I went ahead and ordered two... :(.. U the man for trying though..
I hear you, I would probably do the same, those can really get tested in strong winds.
