They sort of resemble the aluminum stock that came with my MKIII kit, to mount the kit-supplied radiator fan to the stock radiator shroud. Although mine had a bend at each end. Maybe the Coupe is a bit different.
I ran out to the garage and snapped these for you, for reference:
Its the old "B" pillar mystery parts again.
We've had many people ask this one.
Some of us got them, some didn't. But no one has seen them in the manual.

Although they did not fit 100% they act to support the lower wheel house alu' on the front wheel.With the fit of the lower alu' panel this steel brace and the locator pin it realy gives the front of the lower rocker a good deal of strength.
That's where I fit them at least,worked well.

If those steel peices are for the rockers. I don't have the peices that are supposed to be the "B" pillar. Anyone have any photos of those peices. I thought the steel peices were them. The manual is vauge here . It shows you where to cut the slot and the top of the peice but there is no photo or part number.
I do not know what they are or where they go. I did find a place to where they look good to me.
geezer tom @ the blue horse

Bill, were they packed with the window frames since they are also powder coated? Thats the only box I havn't totally gone through since I didn't want to disturb the plexiglass.
Found them in the bottom of the long box with the side windows and frames. I kind of have them mounted for the time being. I am guessing that the window frame will rest on them with the weatherseal in between.
Thanks, all. Bluehorse . . . I think you got it!
BTW . . . I am not going to use my B pillar pieces (the powdercoated, #1-shaped steel things) . . . if anyone would like mine, I'll send them along.
Cheers,
Mike
