Zsus slide fastener
I need to get some slide fasteners for my hood rail. I've been told the Zsus slide fasteners are perfect, any idea where I would get them from,
and am I spelling zsus right?

Can't help with the where to get them part but my guess is "dzus fasteners" is the spelling you need?

Alternative solutions include:
Triumph hood catches (available from Rimmer Bros)
Cut down Bike Quick Release bolts (as used on saddles etc)
