Can anyone identify the metal caps that are on the back of the center grille where the outboard headlight surrounds mount to the center grille? I need a dozen of them. Let me know.

Regards,

Johnnie
 
are you refering to the plastic inserts that fit into the grille brackets
that recieve the screws that hold the grille in place?
or the bolts with the captive washer that anchor the grille brackets to the bumper?
 
The part that is attached to the back of the grille bracket on my road runner are metal. I've attached a picture of the type of attaching nut.

Thanks for your interest.

ok, now i think i get at what you are talking about..
that part/insert is attached on to the grille itself?
and i would think that it would be considered to be a part of it?
i don't recall having seen them for sale anywhere before and
i'm a pretty active buyer for 71 parts (i own 2 71 rr and i'm always looking for something)
in spite of that
i might be able to help you out
i have a broken 71 center grille that should some of them on it
let me know if you are interested
