Need pic of BN4 Convertible Top Clamp

[johnmdanskin]

Hi, I jumped into the deep end with a 1958 BN4. I'm trying to fix everything. Today I'm trying to get all the correct convertible pieces together so I can have a top.

I can't figure out how to get the top clamp to work. I tried screwing them into the bow in pretty much all possible configurations, but nothing seems to work. I have a 1958 BN4. The bow is new, but supposed to work with this car. I'm attaching an image of what I've got. I really tried to find an image showing installation on the network, in my restoration guide, etc. I'd appreciate any help.

thanks!
John

Despite being listed as the correct parts for my car, my bow and the metal support are too wide. Rich's bow and support are the same width as his windshield. Mine are nearly an inch wider than my windshield. Completely shocking that not all of the parts match exactly. I'll probably never get over the surprise.

This really is a lot of fun. Cars where everything fits are boring.
