Default Panel storage brackets??

My roof panel rear storage bracket bumpers are beyond life. Thought no problem- I'll order new ones. They came in the mail. Nowhere resemble originals- whats up?? Called and they said all where the same from 84-89. My question is- did GM change the storage bracket after early 86? What I received was rubber V strips with a retainer that looks like it goes through a hole. What I have are glued rubber strips onto the storage brackets with no holes. Where can I get NEW replacements??

Thanks for the pic. They are indeed the same as my originals. Not sure what the he** they are talking about with the so called new ones. The bumpers are not going to work.
