Does anyone have a link to where the studs should be that hold the windshield molding clips? I took over a '69 FB project from a guy that had taken the molding off. The windshield and back glass are in, but there are not studs all the way around. For example, I think in the front the studs are there on the passsenger's side pillar, but not the driver's side(I think some metal work was done there). I was going to buy some screw in studs in order to get the molding back on, but I can't really determine how many studs there should be in total, or where they should be. I've checked online, and I've tried the search funtion here...I've also checked the Fisher body manual. But all this has turned up nothing useful.
If anyone has any info, or a sketch that shows where these are supposed to be and what clips are used where, that would be a huge help.
I believe there are three on each pillar, and six across the top. If I make it back over to the shop this week, I can measure them. Or somebody may chime in before me if they have them handy.
I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.

three on each pillar and 7 across the top. from the top corner down, 2",9 1/2",17 1/4.corner across, 2", 11", 17 1/4", 24 1/2. Not exactly symmetrical from side to side but appear all original. I used universal clips on the rear with good success. will use the same on the front.
I have many early f-bodies, Camaros and Firebird and I can confirm you without a doubt that they are all over the place, really not consistent from side to side, and from one car to another. Frank.
