you didnt say if you replaced the bow itself or just the end brackets as described in the $200 fix on the forum. The bow itself may be bent. When I purchased brackets they came on bow and I removed them to install. I later had to removed the bow since I couldnt get the screws to the bracket loose. The bow is held on to the top fabric by the fabric slid in a slot on the bow. I pulled the top assy all of the way off to get the bow and screws out. You may be able to remove bow while top is still . I believe there are a couple of posts on that.
