Any 986 hardtop (97-04) will fit any 986 Boxster (97-04). The ears have absolutely nothing to do with mounting the hardtop to the car, they are a cosmetic quirk of the early year hardtops that was later removed.

Any 986 (97-04) Roof Transport System (RTS) will mount on any 986 car. All of the RTS's came with both the ear and body b-pillar mounts. However, the ear b-pillar mounts should not be used. The ears are essentially useless, hence why they stopped being included on later year hardtops.
