Help with interior fasteners
1976 coupe.
I am ready to install a few new parts:
1. interior windshield header bar molding
2. interior center T-top panel
3. Both rear panel pieces
4. Both side pillar post moldings
Trying to decide what fasteners I need. P.O. lost/changed some that now do not look correct. AIM manual is not very specific.
If anyone has pics of original fasteners for these pieces that would be helpful.
Thanks,
Mike

Check out the vendors. Most, if not all, sell interior screw kits. The one I got even had each little bag labeled for what the screws were for.

I did get the complete interior screw set for some other previous projects. The fasteners for the roof panels were not included. I have seen what Zip(and others) offer but they don't seem to match pics and description in the AIM.
Trying to confirm correct fasteners before purchasing from a vendor.

I am ready to install a few new parts:
1. interior windshield header bar molding
The windshield header only has 4 screws, this kit comes with 2 additional for the pillar post trim. The pillar trim had one screw like pictured at this link and then the visor screw that held it in place. The Header center screws passed through the header and then through the forward edge of the center roof panel so there is not a separate kit for the front of the header roof panel (they are in this kit too).

2. interior center T-top panel
There are only two screws on the rear roof panel that are exposed and they are included with the rear roof panel screws.
3. Both rear panel pieces Included the two exposed screws for the backside of the rear roof panel.

4. Both side pillar post moldings (included with the header at the link above).
If you need the j-nuts I'll have to back to work...
