T-top mouting brackets

Hey guys, just wanted to post up some reference pictures for anyone dumb enough to remove these brackets to clean and rust-proof them, but neglected to take any before pictures. There's not a lot of information on the wwwebs to be found, so here's my drop in the bucket. Hope this helps someone!

Indeed, what you picture are the plastic receivers for the rods inside the T-Top rail. What I posted are the actual brackets that these receivers bolt to. You can see them in the photo you provided, one is covered in blue tape.
