Default Can anyone help me identify this missing part?

I just noticed that in my 78 Silver Aniv Ed on the passenger side, just above the seat on the plastic trim, between the side window and the rear window ,there are 2 holes where something use to be. I'm guessing it is one of those hooks that clothes hangers can be hung on, but I can't find anything on Ecklers for this part. There aren't holes on the drivers side, just the passenger.

Can someone please tell me what should be there and if possible and eBay or Ecklers part #?

You know, there are other vendors out there. Try Zip or Dr. Rebuild, I think one has the hangers. If that doesn't work, Call Gruhala Enterprises in DeSoto, MO. I'm sure he has a box of them.

Go to Strauss or Auto Zone...it's about $3 on the 'HELP' rack. It only comes in Black, but you can spray it to match.
