<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I am getting ready to install the rubber fender and hood buffers. I have copper split rivets but what material should the washers be? These are quite visible when the hood is opened so I would like to get it right. All
of the original washers used on my 1960 BT7 were zinc plated steel but I have read the washers should be copper.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The attached picture is one of the fender buffers but I assume all of the washers should be the same.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
