if you look at your soft top frame there is a big triangular looking plate on each side the soft top motor is permanently mounted to. If I were to harvest these plates I basically ruin the top and toss the frame. CR plates are those plates without the motor inside it for the CR.

You need the plate because one bolt of rear hard top latch will bolts to it. Some people leave it hanging but I don’t roll like that.
