Might be one of the variations discussed before...Not hard to see which one was used by the witness marks on the part...I've seen two different tail light housing fasteners also...Or simply the line used whatever was convienient at the time...Document, document then more documenting on what your car originally had..

Thanks The correct ones for a Detroit made car are the ones shown in the bag. They have a captive toothed star washer and are satin black in color. L.A. cars have a silver zinc screw with a wide base to the screw head. They have no washer.
