Default 33/34 spare tire cover fasteners
I have some left over original fasteners that are used to attach the stainless trim piece to the spare tire cover. Not sure if they are for 33/34 or 35/36. Are they the same? See the attached pictures. How many are used to hold the trim to the cover? Thanks,

Tom,


Those are indeed the '33-'34 spare tire cover face plate molding retainers. The '35-'36 face plate has slots, not round holes like the '33-'34 face plate and the molding retainers are formed stampings that are twisted slightly after being inserted into the slots.

David,

Do you happen to know how many are used to attach the molding to the face plate?

Tom,


Sorry, but I'm away from my indoor junkyard until the weekend, so perhaps someone else will be able to answer in the interim.
