Searching for....
« on: February 01, 2014 - 07:05:14 PM »
some kind of a chart that shows the proper screws/ hardware that is used in various places on the car. My car has been disassembled and reassembled by a previous owner. Often, not all of the screws on any given panel are the same. Eg. the dash light bar is held in with six screws but my six have three different heads. Does any such chart exist?
In search of the eternal buzz!

All of the kits they sell with all the correct fasteners usually have a list of what goes where . . . I assume something is available!  Either that or Chryco pretty much knows them all from memory.  lol

Hoover auto parts on eBay sells correct sets of interior and exterior screws and/or bolts.  They also individual sets for a particular parts.
FYI, for some reason the stores eBay name is rob.  Hoover doesn't come up until you pay. :dunno:

"usraptr" = United States raptor - bird of prey = United States Bald Eagle.  FYI, somebody else thought of it first so I had to drop the "O" in raptor.
