1969 Coronet dash trim

[1969CoronetR/T]

I had the corner pieces of the dash polished and went to install them today. I must be missing some sort of clip as there is a screw hole in the stainless corner trim piece and an indentation in the wood grain piece. How does this piece connect to the dash?

Screw only.

So it screws into the pillar with no pilot hole?

Well, let me think a minute;
I have had my 69 R/T since 1971. I pulled the dash to have the speedometer restored and I am pretty sure that piece only has a screw. My car is now just finishing restoration completion is not where I can look at it. I should be getting it back in 2 weeks max. I can tell you for sure then.

Yes, that piece screws to the A-pillar

Ok, Thanks. I just finished washing and waxing both Coronets so I will look into screwing those corners pieces on tomorrow.

I was also wondering what the indents were for in the wood grain trim.

There is no pilot hole in the frame. The hole goes into the plastic a pillar cover on mine.
