Walloth und Nesch is selling an upper trim fastner kit

[JohnN]

with stainless steel fasteners. At about 40 Euros, a viable alternative to Rimspoke's erratic availability.

Cheers!

John,

You'll find that cpi_auto on ebay also makes them - shipping was more than double Rimspoke's for half the amount of clips (yes i have purchased from both Rimspoke and cpi_auto) , but the items are good quality. I think the producer may be on this board too.

have clearance between the hood and the inner fender area when you close the hood. THe lock nuts that come with these kits stick out a little further than the stock fastner and can scratch the inner fender area.

May have to grind the locking part of the nut down a scoche.

I love it when you ue the word "scoche" Bill.....I can even hear your voice when I read it!

we need to go get some beers and food some time! AFTER a good county drive perhaps?

on that country drive now that you are stroked out.

We had a good drive through Deleware and PA a few weeks ago, sorry you missed that one. I think you were eating baked beans, cream pie and Parker rolls in Boston.

they may have corrected that issue since you used them...i recently bought a set from them and didn't have that experience

Hi all,

Our kit includes the stock style jam nuts (in addition to the locknuts) for the hood and trunk just in case the locknuts are too large. We also include instructions on how to check the clearance before you shut the hood/trunk and damage your car. We also have two different lengths of studs, a shorter one for the hood and trunk and a longer one for the hard to access places in the doors and quarters. We have sold our kits this way since day 1.
