Quick question.
On the wrap around rail sets on both the 13 sourpuss and sport 15, does the upper wrap around rail pass through the backrest "T" support OR are they segmented at that point.
My backrest is off approx 2" to one side and wondering if I can loosen the screws in the "T" support brace and slide the wrap around rail through or will it just come apart???
I am trying to install a rod holder on each side and there is not enough space on one side - closer inspection revealed the offset.
Thanks for you guidance/knowledge.

Rem,
There are 2 supports..kinda shaped like a half moon, that attaches to the backrest & rail with screws.
We can provide you with a set finished in varnish for $50 including shipping.

Measure the rail itself and then look at the wood. I believe my rail slides through the "T" fitting but the rail is drilled and screws go into it, not just set screws. If it is not bent and has not been modified, might have been a "monday morning" rail manufacturer...aka messed up at factory. Should not be a problem to fix either way.
