John,
The square head screws do not clamp, they
just do not in-snap!?  They let go of the
molding when you slide the molding.

I needed some many years ago and purchased a plastic packageof them from Rootes with 9 in the package. I used 3 of them and still have 6 left some where in the house, that I haven't seen in years. Some one had 5 or 6 for sale on E-bay several years ago, but I did not want?to pay $5 or $6 each for them. When I had my Tiger painted I had the body man grind them off because the problem of sanding off the old paint and repainting the car. I replaced them with the plastic fastenersfrom the after market parts dealers and are still on the car.

There was one at the front of the front moulding, one on the door, I don't remember? where?it was located and one on the back of the back moulding. I twisted mine off while removing them and had to make the replacements by cutting a 1/8" square brass plate from sheet brass, drilling a hole thru, going?to the local hobby shop and buying the small bolts and then soldering? the head of the bolt to the 1/8" brass plate.
