Got my cowl mesh screens on the car.

I bought the mounting screws from Roseville Dodge - they are listed for an E-Body, but work just fine.

My question is:
Where do you get the rectangular hardware that goes in these rectangular openings?

I don't see them listed anywhere.
 
71 screens did not use screws but had tabs molded in screens that go into the rectangular holes and looks like yours are broken off. No clips. Mid 72 they started using screws.
 
Early 71's had the screws only, added the tabs a couple months in. Agree with Mark with the tabs being molded in.

Thanks guys for your responses.
Mark - I figured that I had broken clips on mine after looking at some images of cowl screens online.

I'll leave them as they are - the screws are more than enough to keep them in place.
 
These are what mine look like. They’re built in to the screen:

Thanks for the photos Chad.
I guess the previous owner(s) got carried away taking them off and broke them.
Mine will still function the way they are...
 
No problem, I don’t think mine will make it through the re-install. They seem pretty brittle.
