Does anybody have a picture of the bolts that are used to mount the convertible top mechanism to the body? I'm looking for what are the markings on the bolt heads as well as bolt and captive washer sizes.

Thank you for any information.

If no one comes to your rescue and you could wait a couple weeks I'll be pulling a rear panel off to do a 1/4 window adjustment. This coming week is suppose ideal convertible weather in my area and I'd like to take advantage of it.

Maybe someone else's 'vert is apart and they can get your measurements.

Let me know if this is enough before I put it back in. Decimals taken with a digital caliper, bracketed numbers are my corresponding guess.

While on the subject, there's 2 alignment holes per side in case people weren't aware of it. I believe they're 1/2 inch and I don't know if my bottom one is also suppose to have a rubber plug. Since there's white paint visible on my bottom hole I might have to readjust the frame or maybe they're just to get you into the ballpark.
