Good morning...could someone post pictures and measurements for the mounting points of these brackets?
Thanks, Rut

Essentially as low as you can get to the floor and centered with top frame in place. I'm missing these as well on Bugsy II and I did have a picture from someone. I do have a nice set of brackets thanks to Ray and his spare parts stash.

Make sure that when the bow is "popped" that the holders are high enough to put pressure on the top of the bow to stop it rattling but still low enough when the bow is "locked" to clear the back panel and be removed. I remember on one car I had, a thin strip of foam in that support channel helped to silence the rattle.
