Smile hardware

[CallawayTurbo]

I'm putting my car together after being repainted and am on the smile.

The hardware that I took off seems like a random assembly of different sheet metal screws, no two alike! Probably the result of previous owners. The pet diagram only show the four screws that go through the trunk. There are four on each side that go into the sheet metal below the lights.

Anyone have a definitive list of the type of hardware that's actually suppose to be there?

Bump, as I am also looking for the same information.

I bought a new smile strip from our host, which came with speed nuts for the front (no screws), and nothing for the sides.

Same mismatch of rusty speed nuts and screws. Anyone know the answer to above?

Originally it was 12 B4.8x13 tapping screws, 4 rubber washers, 12 B5.3 washers and 12 B4.8 speed nuts. At some point they omitted the two screws and washers on the sides that were closest to the center 4 screws, as they are essentially impossible to install.

Part numbers changed a little on some of the parts, consult a PET for your car.

^^ Basically what javadog just said. The only thing even remotely unique are 4 rubber washers that fit against the tub with another washer on top for the self tapping screws.
