Here goes. Finishing up our 1979 Corvette interior project and replacing much of it with new interior components. Hanging the new door panels and pretty much all done except for the screws that came with the our screw set package(2 incl). One bag has 4 smaller screws with a fixed washer for both panels(labeled upper). I know that one of the screws goes to the top rear of the panel but cannot figure out where the other screw goes for each panel. The other bag(labeled lower) has 4 longer screws with 4 cone washers, I'm not sure where these screws go(2 for each panel) as they are not long enough for the very bottom of the panel as the bottom of the panel is thicker than the screws themselves. Can someone tell me where the one remaining smaller screw goes for the top besides the rear of the panel and tell me where the other 2 larger screws go for the bottom part. The old panels were junk and no evidence of screw holes only for the top rear area. Other than that the panel is fine but is loose on the outer sides and bottoms. It is a power window and power door lock car. It would be great is someone even can take a pic of the panel where the screws goes which would make things easier. No guessing and ruining these panels....THANKS!
You can see the lower rear in this photo. The lower front is behind the map pocket Toward the front about a 1/2" down.
Hope this helps.
