I’ll toss this out for critique. I can count 17 screws and/or holes, but I cannot say if they are correct.

Thanks for the picture. All the vendors kits are 17 screws, but I'm not finding 17 holes

My '60 is as above; 3 screws across the floor.
I believe 53-55 had 2 screws and I have seen at least one panel with 4 screws. 4 screws across the floor would get you to 17 total.

Hope this helps.
