tanker, i just replaced mine with the ones RMB showed you. i just took the old ones apart and used the old tube on the new ones. the new ones are about 1 inch too short.

Thats a good idea, or you could use a 1 inch block of starboard or wood as a spacer, but surely someone makes 15" ones.

15" are hard to find and it seems like the most needed i found a stainless kit at a local marina that was cut to fit, they measured 20" and i just cut to fit my app. they didn't cost as much as i feared, only $27.50 plus tax for the set.

This is what I did use Bow Rail tubes , and stainless bimini attachments it will screw directly into the existing support on the windshield end no mod required and attach to the dashboard solid and strong.
