Both of my hardtops have them. Glassworks carries them. relatively cheap too. They silver solder them in when they do their restorations I just glued mine in. tough to solder without the correct tools.

Mine fell out. Looks like it was held in with some black goo.

Thanks Mark,
You just saved me a bunch of work. I was going to take Roy's suggestion and fabricate a pair.

I saw Tom Cruise rock up to a night out, could of been the Emmies. He was driving a metallic blue C1 with the hard top on and they interviewed him from the door window. I still remember it the hard top looked awesome this was without doubt the coolest car in the world. Polished stainless and the little plexi rear quarter window was so clear. This car was a masterpiece.
That was when I had to buy a C1 with a hard top. All I have to do now is paint the roof, new head lining, polish stainless, new plexi and now filling caps should be done in a couple of days ah. Oh forgot all new rubbers, better make that a 6 months. Stewy
