Does anyone have any idea or picture of rear bumper filler strip on a 65 Coronet? I have new strips but don't have any old holes to see how these mount?????
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

If you're asking about the 90* rubber corners, they screw right into the bumper, if I remember correctly. I just put my new ones on my '63 last fall...

There are Phillips head screws that go up into the body on some cars I have seen 5/16 headed screws but they could have been messed with..

They mount to the car, at least on a 64.

You both may be correct. I thought I put them on the bumper before mounting, but my mind may be wrong, again...

Not sure if a 65 Belvedere is the same, but here are pictures of the hole locations where the filler mounts. The filler just snaps in and hangs over the end.
