Default XR3i Cabriolet Owners can you shed some ight

Bought a hood cover for my old man’s XR3i Cabby and when we fitted it yesterday we couldn’t work out where/ how the two little straps on the back corners of the cover fit. Are we missing another bit?

Could anyone with a cabby shed any light on this or even better share a photo or three

I've got a cover too and couldn't find anywhere. I assumed it was just for keeping it tidy when it's stored away?

There is two webbing hoops on the corners of the hood and the hooks slide in to keep the back of the cover down,when I get my cabby back I'll post up a picture

The torneau cover hooks into these eyes when fitted to keep it down at high speed
