AFAIK only cars fitted with a hardtop had the chrome capping pieces and the brackets on the windscreen. Of course they may have been installed by the dealer or previous owners.
Seems like I remember reading somewhere that the bridge pieces under the cockpit rail became standard at some point, but I'm not sure about that. TS13571L had them when I got it (although in a bucket in the trunk), but there were no other signs of a hardtop ever having been fitted.

I don't recall ever seeing those rear brackets fitted on cars without hardtop, but otherwise my recollection is similar to Randall's in that, at some point, provision for easy fitting to the brackets was made via threaded plates in the body or something like that?
