And now I have a very noob-ish question: where are the damn holes? Do I have to punch them myself?? Yes or tell the seller to make them before shipping, normally done via a comment on the order, don't forget to tell what dimension/shape you need in that case, you can provide a picture of the old strap also if you want it similar.

wimpie007 108 Posted August 3, 2015 Just get tool like this and do it yourself I'd make a nice straight line in the middle on the underside of the strap Or use a post it note to determine the location of the holes and that they are spread evenly apart http://www.ebay.com/...l-/230847411196 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
digger2 0 Posted August 3, 2015 To make the cutout for the buckle pin an oval or rectangular shaped tool can be handy also Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
