There are two small weatherstrips that complete the rear top bow seal by the rear of each door. They are held in place by two screws (each). Can anyone tell me the thread size and length of these? My top has been powdercoated and the holes will have to be cleaned out before being used. My old top just had some interior type screws in there before but I believe that these should have a machine thread. Maybe 6-32 and about 3/8 of an inch long???

The GM screw was GM #274233, but it's discontinued without supercession.
McMaster-Carr can fix you right up, though, with a screw which is very close to the original in configuration. In stainless steel it's McMaster-Carr # 98273A155. In zinc plated it's 90087A144.
You have to buy a box of 100 but they're only about 6 bucks a box.In Appreciation of John Hinckley- Top

Re: Convertible top rear bow auxillary weatherstrip
I found a suitable replacement and had three of them installed in no time. Then I found that the last one had been broken off in the leading edge of the bow. Two hours later... Success!
Thanks to all for the info.- Top
