Default New cage, need door pulls?

I have a newly installed safetycage on my 968 and now need door pulls to close the doors.
I was thinking of the RS America door pull straps, but the list at Brumos is ~$55 per pull strap.
Can anyone suggest other options?

IIRC, you can buy 'generic' aftermarket RS pull straps for a lot less, from Performance Parts, they're also available in more than the OEM colors as well.

I made some with black nylon stap material from my local ACE. I attched them using a bolt through a grommet. The attach to the door where the top part of the stock arm rest attaches.


Cost is about $3 each.

Pffff...

Go to the local fabric joint and buy nylon strapping for fanny packs. Lots of sizes. Maybe even colors. I used pieces from an old window net. Free!

I used my old rear selt belts for the 944 Cup project...even cut the piece so that the "Porsche" lettering shows!
