Default N00b Targa Top Question

I am currently looking at replacing my faded acrylic top with a second hand one in better shape.

I know the brackets vary depending on the year, but I was unable to find the info on it...

Can anyone give me a breakdown on the year-to-year bracket style changes?

Thanks in advance!
