Hi Shane
I forgot to say that the actual seats shown in my photo are for sale on e-bay as I sold the car to a specialist Jag Breaker, who has removed them and put them up for sale. which may or may not be of interest to you.

Hi Adam
Many years ago i bought these Latches(Photos Attached) from ‘Pauls Jaguar’ based in America which he sold as an Upgrade/improvement to the Jaguar made Latches which in his opinion were Flimsy and subject to failing which may result in the hardtop detaching from the car which at speed could be highly dangerous. I am not certain if Pauls Jaguar are still in business but it mat worth trying to contact him should you feel these would be right for you, i still have the clamps which i purchased from him which have never been fitted as i managed to source some Jaguar original fitment Latches. I would be happy to sell these if you cant get your hands on any. The last two photos show the C-Pillar hooked end clips which i think would suit the Latches already fitted on your hardtop obviously these would need to be mechanically attached to the C-Pillar, i also have these lying around should you be interested.

Hi Adam
UK supplied hardtops were fitted with 2-No locating clips on the leading front edge of the hardtop which align with 2-No locating clips on the cars roof centre beam (These are locating clips without any clamps). there is no front centre clamp fitted, There are 2-No clamps fitted the lower rear of the hardtop one on each side as per your photo these attach to the cars body using a bolt which passes through a hole in the clamp a screws into a threaded hole on the body work of the car. The brackets fitted on your hardtop don’t have the holes to allow the clamps to be bolted to the cars body, having explained how UK hardtops fit I see no reason why your clamps should not work as long as you have the correct mating pieces which would need to be mechanically attached to the cars body.
Hope this helps
