Default 68 vinyl top molding

I’m in need of a couple of things.

The vertical molding that looks like a curved L behind the quarter glass is missing a clip. The clip attached to the molding and has a head that pushes into the quarter panel itself. Is the clip in this pic correct?

Is the kit for that molding? The one between drip rail and quarter panel.

Also I can’t seem to find nuts that secure the hood scoops to the hood.

Anyone know the name of the clips?

I think that kit is for the molding from the L shaped piece, back to corner piece (the two nuts) and across the panel at the top of the trunk.

I didn't even know that L shaped piece had a clip, thought it was just the two screws ... so I probably need the clips too.

I bought a box of 50 speed nuts from Aveco (?) ... seems to fit many applications that use them ... I'll check and see if they fit my scoop inserts, I still have a few of the original nuts attached to them. Places like McMaster have a good selection of speed nuts of various sizes ... but you gotta figure out what size you need.

The nuts I'm going to use to replace missing OEM scoop nuts are:

Auveco PN 3404MC
3/16 stud size
1/2" OD flange
3/8" Hex Head

Tested them and they seem to fit fine on the scoop threads.

Don't see the equivalent on McMaster, or anyone selling less than a full box of the Auveco.

PM your address and I will send you a dozen of them ... I bought the smallest box ... 100 of them I'll see if they make it through in a letter envelope.
