Again I'm sorry , I did it to my self. Some times I keep myself awake thinking about little stuff that wasn't a problem to begin with.
Hi Mike,

Sounds like those are the ones to find. Maybe someone here will know a source for them or maybe EM will respond eventually, I’ll keep looking too.

For the reason you mention, sounds like those would be good ones to get. Regardless, even with those installed, if you ever need a hand setting your top on (or lifting it off) I’d be happy to help, just let me know.

Brent

I had these kits for years and never knew that there was a bottom inside the ferules. I had only seen the FinishLine ferules and they were rounded but also the doors on the original car had three ferules per door for the side curtain. I was all worried about placing my arm across a ferule in the center of the door. I got around to looking at the side curtain kit and realized there were only two down leg posts per side curtain. the legs bottom on the ferules internal bottom, holding the fabric and seal of the side curtain just off the ferule top. The original EM ferules were made from SS had external threads , and flat tops IThe obvious came too late to me.
