Austin Healey Hardtop?

As luck would have it, a friend and myself just picked up 2 hardtops. One looked like it would fit a Sprite, the other my buddy's MGA.
So we were both wrong.
And we think they are Healey hard tops.
One is metal with 2 male pegs along the windscreen and 2 female attachment points on the rear deck. It also has 2 "J" hooks. The curves look correct and it has a TripleX glass back lite. It is for a side curtain car.
The other is a Parrish Plastics glass top, it is NOT the same as the metal top. But it has the same curves along the back. Different window cut outs.
Pics coming soon as the tops are not at my house just yet.
Does anybody know of any markings or how to tell what year these tops fit?
 
Does one look like it might fit an old 100-4? If so they are honestly /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif worthless. I'll be in NJ June 10 and will quickly I mean casually drive down your way to take it to the junk yard for you. At no cost to you at all.
