Hi all,

I am developing a replacement plastic head for the 70-71 E body convertibles with manual top.

I am supplying screws and nuts to secure the plastic to the OEM spring metal. (A buyer could obtain rivets and use those if they want the most OEM look but they will not be supplied. The recessed hole in the plastic for the rivet / screw head is the same ID as the OEM part) I need to be sure my screws are the correct size so no drilling is needed to the OEM spring metal.

I need to determine the hole size in the ends of the spring metal the OEM plastic is riveted thru.

These are prototype mockups (Any dimensions that look off in the photos is just photographic anomalies)
