Need help on interior trim screws
What do the screws that hold the interior carpeted kick panels look like on a 67?

Re: Need help on interior trim screws
These kick panels have a unique set of screws and arrangement also, so you'll going to need to give out the part number
and pay attention to what screw goes where, ref your 67AIM.
The only screw that seems to be universal for C2 are the three 4751359 which hold the metal retainer on (3852313).
Now I do not have the 67AIM so not sure on the configuration for 67. -

Those are the screws I was wondering about. The repros mention washers so they are not really accurate.Comment

Re: Need help on interior trim screws
As I alluded to the arrangement of these screws change depending up year, at least 63/64 (do not have other AIM's to check)
The 4751359 (shown in photo) which holds the metal retainer is also used at one location on the carpet while the other screws
used on the carpet are (for 63/64) 9417987 or 9415942. The 4751359 (shown in photo) does have a washer as part of the screw.
Not sure if the repro house is referencing the cone washers used to hold the carpet to the backing. Typically these get removed when
new carpet is added to the kick panel. So when using the other screws (9417987 or 9415942, or ?) which hold the carpet remember to
add the cone washers. Again you must look at your year's AIM, if you do not have one - get it!
The 9417987 was replaced by 9414754 in "79", that part is a Oval Cr. Recess No.6 Hd "type" AB 8-19x3/4 ChromeComment

Re: Need help on interior trim screws
I have the 67 AIM and 4751359 screws are called out as the screws that go through the metal retainer. I did not know what they looked like, so thanks for the picture. Are they #8 screw threads or #10?Comment

Pat,
The ones pictured go around the perimeter of the kick panel, but the conical ones are used inside the carpeted area on the kick panel. Generally we see 1-2 kick panel conical screws on the carpeted area of the kick panel. ARAComment

Re: Need help on interior trim screws
The 4751359 are listed as #8-18 X 1
Ara, are all the other screws going into the carpet the same or are some the 4751359?
Sounds like the 67 only uses a few of the 9417987 with cone washer.Comment

Re: Need help on interior trim screws
The 359's are the only ones we've seen to secure the perimeter of the kick panel, however the cone/conical screws with cone washer (IMO they are the same screws as those that hold the upper wings on 67 door panels on) are the ones that are supposed to be in the carpeted areas of the kick panels. That's typical, however i have seen one original car that had one 359 screw in the carpeted area and one conical. ARAComment
