Hi everyone looking for a bit of help regarding the canopy.

It seems that the canopy latches that locking into the railing are suppose to be steel and my are made our of an aluminium. it makes it not able to lock in very well. I have had to place to pieces of rubber in between the spring and the canopy to get it to stay locked in during maneuvers but this also make it hard to get open.
I am wonder if anyone has the plan pictures for this part and where i can get the material for it


Thanks!
