Austin-Healey Sprite Bugeye Hardtop B-Pillar Hold-Down Brackets (Spears Style)

Description

For years we have sold all the parts for hardtop restorations and now we are excited to add a part that has previously been quite difficult to find! 

These mounting brackets are faithful reproductions of the originals. They rest on top of permanent top bow holders welded onto the body of every Bugeye. The brackets support the back of the top while allowing you to bolt the top to the car. These metal pieces bolt to the sides of the hard top above the B pillar and then the mounting bolt and chrome wing nut secures the bracket to the body of the car.

I suspect many of these were removed (and lost) when tops were stored over the years. Now you can properly secure your top to your car with these original reproductions.
Sold individually, price is for one bracket. You’ll need two per each top. Three machine screws and nuts (not included) are required to bolt these to your hardtop. Each bracket comes with a rectangular back plate for those three bolts, as shown. Specify left or right bracket, these are handed, or buy a pair and save!

If you are buying these “spears” that hang on your hardtop, you will probably also like our correct hardtop hold down bolts and wing nuts to complete the restoration of your top.
