I need a picture of the head of the philips head screw and the length (a picture would do) of one. I was working on the GS today and saw the screws were missing. I know I have the correct ones here- just don's remember what they look like. Thank you!
Stage- can you take one out and get a pic? Wanted to see if it was a self tapper... like these... Thx
These are non-self tapping. I would think originals would be self tapping . Todd GS has them on his website.
The originals are self tapping. I just remove my originals to swap the trim for non depressed wipers. I can remove one easily and get a picture. Mine didn't have clear plastic washers though. I know they are original as the 1970 Penny is still stuck in the rubber holding the windshield.
As posted on my website . . . . . https://www.stage1restoration.com/product/cowl-trim-screws-washers/ These are the Correct Screws to hold the Stainless Cowl Trim in Place $12.00 Kit gets you the 7 Screws needed to attach the Cowl Trim Fits 1968 – 1972 Note: Sometimes these kits come with plastic washers. The Plastic Washers are not used on our Buick’s. Stage 1 Restoration has the most hardware of any vendor for the 1970 – 1972 GS / GSX & Skylark Models. Don’t see what you need ? Give me a call, we probably have it!
OK. Spend some time yesterday in my "small" screw can. I feel that there may be two (2) types of screws- the non-self tappers, which have a dab of wax or glue or some substance on the tips and the self tappers that Pat shows. Both have philip's heads, both are narrow with a flat section, both are stainless.
Jason, Some of the cars did come with plastic washers under the screws, but I do not remember the Make or Models that had them. That may also have been a Plant thing. Duane
