Re: What size Bolts needed to replace dash pad

Depends on if it's an early or late car. Early used Phillips countersunk trim screws across the defroster vents, later used 7mm hex heads with washers. The defroster vent screws are hella-long, the ones under the dash are shorter. The diagrams in the book dont list them, so no specifics...
