Manual top spring bracket
I think I have figured it out. When I first started working on the car all the hydraulics for the power top were disconnected and laying in the trunk. The car had a manual top and these clips held the top down in the folded position. The clips were mounted to the inside, next to the top of the back seat.I removed the manual spring system and reworked the pump lines and cylinders to be original. Thinking about it I probably don't need these because the hydraulic cylinders are holding the top down in the boot.
