REFLECTOR: RE: Captive cowl fasteners

[Tony Babb]

Brian,

Are these the Skybolt fasteners? FWIW I wandered around the pits a couple of times at Laguna Seca racetrack and talked to some of the mechanics as the open wheel cars have similar requirements for attaching body panels. All used camlocks or skybolt fasteners.One said the skybolts were better as they could be adjusted.

  Sorry for the delay.

  I have mine installed, and am using the following parts:

  Stud: sk40s5-2s
  Grommet: sk-0s
  receptacle: sk245-4
  snap ring: skr4g

  It's about $10 per fastener.  Not cheap, but I like them.

    Brian,   Have you posted subject pics yet?    I can't find them.   Also, have you the source and part numbers?

    Thanks,   Gordon
