BJ8 soft top bows?

Is there a specific location for the second from the rear top bow. The rear bow distance is set by the glue seam but what about the second from the rear bow? Also how are the two cloth straps run between the bows. I have the large channel holds the straps to the rear bow and the two small pieces that clamp the strap to the second bow. Thanks for your help and have a good day!

Also how are the two cloth straps run between the bows.

All straps are configured to run over and parallel to the top's seams and are located between the top and the metal bows.

I have the large channel holds the straps to the rear bow and the two small pieces that clamp the strap to the second bow.
-Yeah there are crew holes in the bow for mounting them.

Thanks for your help and have a good day!--??Hope it helps.
