Headliner bow placement

Reading another thread regarding the center headliner bow and I have a similar question perhaps you folks could answer. Since I took the headliner out seven years ago and the masking tape with labels decided to fade away to nothing....

IIRC the center bow is thinner and mine is wrapped in a paper tape type material. Does anyone know which bows (in terms of length) install in which position? I think I have three different lengths on the remaining four bows, two being the same length. Can you folks give me an idea, front to back, on which length goes where?

Yes I'm kicking myself for not labeling things better. Thanks for any help. Robski I know you did this job recently so maybe you remember?

The bows go from "Tallest" in the rear to "shortest" in the front.

test fit them in the roof to be sure. Each should fit fairly close to the roof when placed into the middle or top side holes.

Perfect! That's exactly what I needed to know. I'll lay them out and see how it works. Just need to find the time for this job now....

X2 Rambow, malibru let me know if you need any pictures. Did you use any sound deadener in the roof?

Robski, any pics of your sail panels? I have a metal piece screwed into the c pillar, does that hold cardboard panel in place then headliner covers that? I'm not sure how to cover the sails, then tuck everything in. I haven't started the project yet but hope to soon.

Thanks all...
