Can someone tell me the spec on the inside diameter of the keder rail on 320S BD? I am considering getting these "light holders" but unsure if the size is right

    Looks like it has two different size inserts for the rail system.  Worth giving it a go and see.

    An alternative:
    I've been successfully using a nylon cable tie for this purpose.  I make a loop with the cable tie, cut the tail end off and insert the "head" of the cable tie into the keder channel.  This works well for light loads.

    Here are my measurements from a screen skirt project on my 2015:

    8.5mm (or 5/16") keder cord works well--it has a flap which gets sewn onto whatever it is you are trying to attach to the rail.

    The gap is the rail is 1/4". The width of the opening (where you slide the cord in) and the inside channel is 3/8" - 7/16" at best--it's hard to get the calipers in there for an exact measurement.
