I believe their stockers. I didn't buy aftermarket ones and i don't think the previous owner cared enough to.
These ones are glass, aren't the aftermarket ones plexiglass or urithane?

My C&C tee tops dont rattle. I have sfcs on my car and if you look behind the cover plates where the rod slips into, you can put a rubber grommet in there to absorb some of the vibration. I put rubber grommets all around and it works great. Nothing wrong with C&C tops imo.
When adjusting the (stock) t-tops, do you want to adjust them tighter or loser than they were before in order to stop leaks and rattles? Iv'e tried everything and can't get rid of the rattles (driver t-top) and leaks (pass. t-top). BTW, the weatherstripping is new. Suggestions? -89IRO
