Hi,
I'm installing a new dash pad and I have a question about the vent
hardware.  At either end of each vent cover there is a large hole and a
small countersunk hole.  I have the original screws that came off and as
you can see in this photo I have a small sheet metal screen for the small
hole and a larger machine screw for the larger hole.

My question has to do with the machine screws.  The hole in the dash is not
threaded and you can't get to the screw from under the dash to put a nut on
it.

How is the machine screw supposed to work here?

Thanks,
Joe Brown

Never mind.  The larger holes ARE threaded.  There appears to be a captured
nut below the layer of sheet metal.  The machine screw feels loose in the
hole until it is tightened all of the way down.

Thanks,
Joe Brown
