Paracord everything!

There was probably 20-30' of cord there total. I used equal amounts of both colors and then melted them together and started making a cobra knot with the bar as the core. Basically you center the melted section in the back and start the knot. It was pretty simple to do and you can find videos on cobra knots aka Solomon bars. I pushed the center together as it didn't really criss cross like the normal knot weave but that was nothing special. Took me about 20 minutes to do and it looks great in the jeep. I have seen other knots weave's as well. There was one that was a three color Turks head knot and it was insane looking.

I don't have the patience or skill for this right now though.

Try paracord.com. They have a lot of different colors to choose from and pretty much everything you would need to make anything you want. I'm about to buy some but i just have to decide on the color choices

Gorilla paracord has nice real US made 550 in tons of colors. I also buy from a vet on amazon. He has really nice quality stuff too. They are about 3-4 bux for 25'.
 
Made some zipper pulls for the Trektop NX. Much easier to zip that rear window for sure.

Here are the instructions on how I made them. I used 2 2' sections and made the short end like 4-5" long. Just make your loop shown below bigger and repeat steps 11-14 to make the cobra knot.
