Hood spear retainers

jball1105 · Mar 16, 2020

Hey guys, looking to install my 63 sport fury hood spear. I can't seem to find the right type of retaining clip, or whatever it is called for the spear. I know it's not a regular trim clip, it's a push on of some kind?? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

Try self threading pal nuts

be carefull with self cutting nuts. if they are too small in diameter they WILL cut off the stems

Called Tinnerman nuts. Sheetmetal nuts that cut their own threads. Ace hardware is a good source.
