If you are referring to the bar near the top of the seat, they are reproduced. They should have some prongs that get bent over on the reverse side to hold them in place. Two are required for fronts on all deluxe interiors, two on the rear seats for hardtops and convertibles only, fastbacks with the deluxe interiors don't get them. They should be included in the seat cover sets.

Thanks Jim! Yes, these are what I am looking for.
Unfortunitly the ones on my front seats have started getting ugly and pitting.
My upholstery is reproduction and I have no idea what company my restorer used some 5 years ago.....
I am hoping I can buy new medallions loose and have my local upholstery guy swap them out.
