I seem to recall a couple of years ago that Charles (TRF) had located
some small diameter white plastic washers to go under the lift the dot pegs
specifically to keep from chipping paint, etc.  I would inquire
again............

Good
morning List,

I just got my L-T-D peg kit from TRF, #RFK923, and notice that
there are no
washers.  Interestingly, TRF does not provide any washers to go
under the
pegs, whether machine or wood screw shanks.  Moss does show that
there is a
leather washer, #435-515, under all the pegs for all commissions
numbers.

I called TRF and they offered no explanation but it would seems to
me, and
TRF agreed, that you would need something to protect the paint where
these
pegs are on the body and to keep from twisting the vinyl/leather where
the
pegs are used to secure the capping rails.

Just putting this out there as
I would hate for someone to mess up a nice
paint or re-cover this way, I am
going to get some washers before I proceed
with my installation.

As always,
comments and advice are very welcome!
