Replacement Hardware for Soft Top on a 1997 Jeep Wrangler

Question

Question:

I just bought a 97 tj it came with all the tops. Well summer time is approaching and its time for the soft top but I noticed its missing a few parts. Most of the rail system is under the hard top but when I set up the hardware that holds the soft top up I noticed the brackets are missing. The brackets that go between the roll bar and windshield. I found the part but its for the older model jeeps. I have a picture of the end that is supposed to connect somewhere around where the windshield meets the roll bar. I wish I could explain it better. Im attaching a picture. What your going to see is what should somehow connect to the rollbar/windshield area. Please help.. any help would be greatly appreciated
