[T2] 73-79 bumper bolts,

[Jamie]

Thanks Jim... [...]
your reply prompted me to try something I was thinking about,,, and it 
worked pretty well.

 a very small dia lock washer under the bolt head... it allows the cover to 
go over the head, and click in ..
the lock washer I used has an OD of 0.510" ish 12.9mm if my vernier is 
accurate

it looks like this one. altho I can't tell as web page doesn't seem to give 
dimensions..
