Many thanks AlanR for the photos etc, thanks also to others whom replied. Thanks also for the links but I have already made the hooks in stainless steel using the photo on a parts supplier's website and will fit them tomorrow.
Even with the hooks engaged, it doesn't seem that this top will be completely rainproof, especially where is crosses the top of the A pillar and also where it meets (or doesn't very well, in my case) the top of the door glass.

Firstly, Hello to you all from a new member.
I have wanted a TR4 for many years and I normally acquire "project" cars and restore them myself. I have acquired a TR4, that's been (sort of) restored by the previous owner, in fairness, it's not too bad but it is missing a few bits and pieces here and there and requires some finishing touches.
I can source the parts I require and I can fit them except the retaining hooks for the Surrey top because I don't know where they go. Could someone please direct me to photos/drawings of the position, along with some measurements as I can't find any witness holes in the A or B pillars.
Many thanks
David

Thank you Stuart. I'll look at glass adjustment, I have to strip the doors anyway because the passenger door can't be opened from outside and the drivers window winder is catching on something.
Even though the hood is fully engaged along the top of the front screen, I can see daylight between the top of the A pillar and the hood, is this normal? It seems to me that the hood should have a small lip that overlaps the top edge of the A pillar.
