Does anyone have a good picture showing the difference between the early vs late Targa top rubber bumper/blocks (the part that the hook catches)? I found a picture but it doesn't highlight a difference, and I'm pretty sure there is one.

Late one is on the left. It taller and more narrow at the top. I can get a better picture later.

Thanks for that Bruce.
IF you have both.. could you please measure the height on each please? I may be sourcing several of both kinds and most people won’t necessarily know the difference without a measurement. TIA. @bdstone914 . |

It's in the rubber bumpers. One is taller and narrower at the contact point. The latch base on the car is also narrower to match. IIRC its ~1" and ~1.25"

The only URO ones I'm seeing (google search), look to be early if I'm comparing them to the early ones I already have. But just a guess. . |
