My parrish hardtop is connected to the windshield with 2 bolts,washers and
wingnuts along with the 2 turn buckles in the rear.
My top is atleast 20 years old and I was please to find out you can also get
any seals etc from www.smoothline.com just specify you have a parrish top.
They now sell the top with stainless steel hardware.
