I'd just apply a bit of neoprene over the brackets Craig. You could finish it off with a bit of leather to match the interior. If you are at the factory on Friday for the pre RFTH tours, you could ask the tour guides for a bit. I'm sure SBM would oblige.....or even me!
Very good idea, but unfortunately I am unable to attend RFTH, but if I ever get the chance to visit the factory I will kindly ask for a small piece of Tan leather
