    DMCH vs Euro UK Club Door Straps

    Hi,

    Just wondering if anyone knows if one or better than the other when it comes to the reproduction door straps. I am looking for a pair of the early style with D-rings.

    To my knowledge there are 3 types available of the early style ones. DMCH do 2 types:

    Original NOS: http://store.delorean.com/p-10521-pu...ing-vinyl.aspx (these are in vinyl, priced per strap)

    Reproduction: http://store.delorean.com/p-9906-pul...g-leather.aspx (these are in leather, priced per strap)


    Then there is the one we stock on behalf of James R-G (who is also active on here):
    http://www.deloreanclub.uk/black-doo...rly-style.html (this is leather) - please note this for a PAIR of 2 so a good price. There is no tax. Available in black and grey/gray.
    All I know about these is that they are hand-made in the UK and are stitched over a central webbing core to prevent stretching. It is quite a chunky well made item - I'm happy to take some more detailed photos if you want. They've been on sale for about 10 years now, quite a few sold over the years.

    I have a pair of the UK leather straps and they are still perfect after about 5 yrs. Much better quality and more heavy duty than the original vinyl ones

    Thanks, both of these posts really help. I wasn't sure if the DMCH was per strap or not.

    Either way, was looking for some feedback from someone who had any of them. I went ahead and ordered from the UK, as I had also emailed James from the UK about his straps. Looking forward to getting a set!
