windshield to cowl latchs

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

I'm nearing the completion of my cj2a restoration and can not find the proper latches and hooks for the windshield to cowl. I have the original latches BUT I have lost the hooks that bolt to the instrument panel on both sides. I purchased new latch kits from Kaiser Willys but they are wider at the mount holes and the hook pieces are completely wrong. I know that this is a 3b windshield frame on a 2a. Anyone have or know where to get 2 hooks ?  HELP
