The Swiss used two main bow brackets which were connected in the center to support the peak. Plus there was the folding bracket over the front crew compartment.

The shot of the T-16 currently for sale with bows seems to have a set made for a wider truck as they have been modified at the lower ends to fit. Still a decent attempt.
