Hi Richard,
I can confirm Jean's observation on that plastic covering on the top frame =
legs. I think it may have been there to minimize rattling.=20

Here are a few photos of what an original one looks like, not sure if the o=

Are theses frames interchangeable?
MY car had the frame with the bent legs, but I just got one with straight l=
egs. I can't locate my bent leg frame. So, can I use the straight one? I am=
fitting a new, but already complete top I bought.
Thanks, Happy New Years to all.
