Description
The Nissan Figaro’s iconic folding roof is covered in a hard wearing, foldable and weather resistant ivory coloured vinyl trimming. This trimming is bonded to the structural front and rear roof bows that form the structure of the roof mechanism. Due to its length and in order to keep the length of the roof covering tensioned from front to rear, the Nissan Figaro employs the use of a ” spring and cable” tensioner system that tensions the length of the roof covering when the roof is fully closed.
Attached to both front and rear roof bow with rivets, the roof bow tensioner is manufactured with an encapsulated tensioner wire attached to a specific strength spring enclosed in the front bracket to allow the correct tension on the roof covering. The original system is prone to corrosion, snapped cabled and seized/corroded tensioner springs rendering the system ineffective.
Here at The Figaro Shop, we are always developing parts to ensure the longevity of the Nissan Figaro and we are now able to offer a pair of the roof tensioners ready to fit to your vehicle to replace broken, corroded and a snapped original.
Sold as a pair, the zinc plated brackets will resist corrosion and as they are mated with stainless steel springs and cables, will offer a reliable replacement for many years to come and come complete with the rivets needed to complete installation. The best time to inspect these units is when replacing a corroded roof bow available HERE or when replacing the hood available HERE.
