Quick Top Question

Post by jrg05a »

Hello,

I'm wondering what screws or bolts are used to hold the bottom lip frame of the soft top and the plastic cover to the back of the car? Is it something I can pick up from lowes? Thank you.

There are 5 large sheetmetal screws that hold down the rear bow.
Lowe's may have something that big, I'm not sure.

Yeah it looks like it would be screws that go into the body of the car. I have the big metal curve piece that the top slides into at the bottom. I was wondering if y'all knew the size screw I may need? Thanks again
