The clips that you show are for the straps that hold the rear window flap up and support the weight of the glass. They are on the top end of the strap and go into a "footmans loop" that is attached to the wood bow at the back of the convertible top.

Thanks Bill. I know what they are. I just don't know the correct application (year / model).
