But the front bracket came in the pre-delivery kit in the trunk with the wiper arms, blades, mirrors, hubcaps, etc. The rear bracket was something you went to the parts department to get. Therefore, the rear brackets could be different, depending on where the parts manager could get the best deal on them. On the Type-1, the dealer supplied both of the brackets.
