Has anyone installed a repop header bow on their 68-72 convertible top? I have a 69 that needs replacing and debating on a clean oem or just buy a repop. I Would like some feedback on fit and quality to help with my decision. Thanks

try finding a clean OEM one. They were made from rusty steel originally

Header bows,
They fit pretty good, They seem to be a bit "straighter" tham the OEM, meaning they dont fit the windshield quite as tight, could be all the oem Ive seen are 40+ years old.
I have a header bow bought from Ecklers, new unused will sell for 50% off and you pay actual shipping. Ive had it in the classifieds here fore about a year.
