Hi Gert,
There are no top supports or ears.
this looks stupid but it's true. I also wondered this support.
if the fairing and dashboard unit aren't perfectly lined out you will notice that the small silent blocks of the dasboard are bend and will rip off at the end.
solving that problem means you have disassemble the whole clock unit before you get access. This ain't fun, I've been there. the benefit is that you can polish, clear and repaint anything what is attacked or discoulered over time
