Sub-Frame connectors for convertibles?

Where are the sub frame connectors for a 91 z vert? Keep finding ones screaming not for convertibles? Any help or leading the way appreciated.

And you can put both the Alston SFC's and your favorite perimiter design SFC's that are made to fit a 'vert on the car at the same time. Put the Alstons on first, then tie the others into it if it has the type (as Spohn's does) with the cantelevered piece that ties into the front subframe.

I haven't personally done the double SFC install yet. There are a few local members that have and many more here on Thirdgen.org. Do a SEARCH. Discussion and pictures of the installation have been posted.
