: Larry is correct. They are called ladderlocks and they are easy to find at
: outdoors places like EMS, Campmor, REI. I used them to finish off my
: buckles for my hatch holddowns on my Chessie 18 to keep the excess webbing
: from flapping and to make the buckles hold solid. Usuually they run $0.30
: apiece or so.

My kit came with ends that don't have ladder locks so I'll go to one of our outdoor places and get some. For the price it beat's having to sew on the ones that I have.

Thanks, Lorne.
