Wedge Bonnet and trunk prop rods

Hello all,

Just bought a new 1979 TR7 with less than 27K on the original clock--unbelievable find!! Interior is immaculate, and trunk tools are still in heat-sealed blue bag. Wowser. I drove a '79 wedge as a daily driver years ago, and I am thrilled to find this one.

Among the oddities from the original owner (now deceased) is that neither prop rod is present. The trunk is fitted for the single rod, not the gas shocks. ANY ideas where I may find original replacements, and/or what other cars' prop rods will work?

Thanks so much in advance.

Brad
