Re: 54 outside air arm?
The curved arm to the vent is connected with two small carriage bolts - with a washer, lock washer and nut
C Central carries the kit or you can pick up correct looking bolts are ACE.
The bolts point towards the passenger side
The square part of the carriage bolt goes in the vent arm slot1954 Corvette #3803 - Top Flight 2012, Bloomington Gold 2012,

You might look at the photo on the CC website and then buy them at half the price at your local hardware store...with no shipping charge. In any case, what you need are carriage bolts with no logo/headmark. Should not be any headmark on the carriage bolts for your front bumper guards either.- Top
