Very interesting
Thanks for bringing this subject up Hanno,
I would like to have one made for my F15 (whenever the day of getting it on the road arrives). Interesting to note, the one in the manual pictures has straps. Whereas the other has rope as tie downs. Is anyone familiar with the strap type and able shed more light on it?

The straps were an early item. They had slots on them that went onto pegs around the box. Later covers just used the rope.
