Want to replace my windshield top frame

FM Former Member
Hi, I live in france and I've got a vintagespeedsters replica
I had troubles this week end on the road with my speedster. the bonnet openned by itself suddently on the road and broke the windshield and scratched the top frame !!!!
As I live in france, it would be much easier for me to buy the parts for repairing in germany or france but I don't know if the windshield top frame on the vintagespeedsters is exactly the same as original porsche (size, holes for hardware etc...).
I want to buy it trough classic-parts-france.de....but does it fit ???
anybody knows the answer ?

We can't buy on the online store of vintagespeedsters by the way ???

Thanks

Thanks guys, I guess I'll buy only the frame then, my chrome posts are like new.
I'll try to purchase it through VS (much cheaper)

What about the side molding (8 pieces) is it the same section and exactly same size as original ?? (it's scratched on the rear as the bonnet went away (I should use the word flying ...Grrrrrrrrrr !!!!)

Is the upper bonnet mechanism very specific or can I use a VW Beetle one ???
