You said, "welded on", Do they actually get welded on? _________________ Tropical Veteran

I'd think they would be welded on being they are on a hat channel like the one on the windshield. There is no access to the back. Unless there were weld nuts but the pic looks like they are spotted on. _________________ Brett

On my A1 and referring to the photo Wes posted, K = 10 1/2", L = 10 3/4" and Q = 10 1/2". _________________ 1955 M38A1 |

I guess that is a critical element. V is 8 1/2". _________________ 1955 M38A1 |
