Preping for my new top, just got the parts to mount my bows, wondering if there is a drawing on mounting locatons, it is a M38, cant find any existing holes. I bought the entire kit from DeBella, stowage and all.
Thanks.

In the workshop tinkering, put the bow brackets on, bows won't slide in. loosened the bolts and they do slide in.
Working with aftermarket brackets, and what I believe to be the original bows.
Feel sure you guys have run into this before, do I put a spacer between the brackets and body, file the bows a bit, or just keep a wrench with me to loosen and tighten as I change from topless to top.
Leaning toward making a spacer, or wrenches.
Just don't like the idea of changing the bows...thinking one day I may find NOS brackets and regret that move.

Thanks.

ps. still dont have my new canvas from weebee, just three more weeks! :D
