cuda side marker light housing mounting hardware
« on: June 09, 2016 - 09:53:00 AM »
looking for the correct hardware to mount front and rear side marker light housings to fenders, I have the light/bezel assemblies, and the backing plates that "sandwich" these in fender but uncertain what type of fastener the tapered stud gets.
speed nuts?
press on nuts?
those hollow acorn style nuts?

An E-body fastener guide from http://www.mmcdetroit.com/ would be a very good investment.  :2cents:

As was mentioned tall acorn for the tapered studs but there are 2 types. One has an insert for use with a threaded stud and the other has a self threader insert which is the one that you need and is very hard to find i agree, but i have them. Possibly some NOS maybe, but most certaintely quite a few used
