Default Rear Spoiler Mount Studs - Source?

Have a few studs missing on the center and side sections of my T/A project, must have somewhere been misplaced.

Anyone know of a source or possible alternate replacement?

Are you referring to the threaded studs with the flat shoulder? Every cheap and busted spoiler has a set ready to use.

I am not finding any close by to me, and most for sale I am seeing are not all busted up.

Have a source for some busted up ones? Link?

Have you tried the other side of the world? That's where I get mine, good or busted. They aren't hard to find if you live in the US.

Yes, I'm in Virginia. The ones I see for sale are good ones, and even some of those don't have the studs in them.

New ones do have the studs but are more cost to eat just for the studs.

there seem to be guys here who are hardware experts;
I’m sure you can get replacements…

The “other side of the world” comment made me chuckle!

I'm in Australia. I've had no trouble sourcing decent spoiler ends from the US and having damaged ones turn up. Not from careless shipping but false descriptions. Even a couple that had already been replaced with thread stock, still worked but failed to mention.

Can you use pieces from the OER '67-9 kit?

I ordered some, will see how useful they are. Should know Monday or so, will share info.

I think the long ones in the kit are too long, and the short ones may be too short. But that's going entirely by the image on the ad.

Sorry it won’t let me delete the duplicate… tried 3 times but I think the P/N you may try is B-13780

Yes, looked at AMK, was one of the first places I tried, and several others, I have yet to find the specific studs.
