No pics but the ones i have used go from the upper front door mount to the door latch and from the upper front door mount to the upper seatbelt mounting in the rollbar.

That makes for a nice triangle while leaving enough room to work on the longs or floors.

If your car is very rusted, you can also add a X brace between the front targa top latch mounts and the rear targa top latch mounts.

If possible, make the braces adjustable so you can expand/contract them if needed.

Chassis specs can be found here:
