Anyone know any tricks for stretching a tonneau? Mine, probably original,
is about one inch too short front to back. Last summer I ran cords through
the eye holes and stretched it out on the side of my house like a hide. I
applied vinyl treatment products in the hot sun and tightened the cords with
some effect but not enough. Anyone know of a method that works?
