Default Missing Hardware

Does anyone know what piece of hardware/clip/plug etc goes in the holes on either side of the hatch on a 63 convertible ?

I'm talking about the hole that is on the skinny portion of the hatch that sits right behind your shoulder when the hatch is closed and your sitting in the seat.

I have the holes but no hardware formthem. I think they have something to do with the hard top.

Thank you

Yes they are for the hard top. If your car was a soft top only it wouldn't have them. If ordered with a C07 hard top then there should be a nut insert that goes in there. It's a 1/4 20
