When I bought my car it didn't have any roof struts attached to it 😬
I can see how they attach to the roof frame but I can't see how they attach to the body of the car and I was just wondering if anyone could shed any light? Or if anyone has any pics, could take a pic for me.
Thanks ✌️

Ive just replaced mine and did have some pictures but can't find them at the moment. I'm thinking from your description this is a manual roof?
Have you got the brackets that attach the strut to the car? I've found a picture from someone selling these on ebay so you can see what I mean.

If not these are what you need, I can take a few pictures tomorrow for you but it's not an easy area to photograph.
Let me know anyway if you have these brakets and I will show you how they bolt on.
