68 GTO Glove Box Screws
Just wanted to point out that the glove box screw set, PN A353AK for a 1968 GTO are the incorrect size. Considerably too small. Not sure whether you pack them yourselves or get them prepackaged from AMK etc.
See photos below. AMES part on the Left, Originals on the right. As you can see, when they are in place the head is almost small enough to fit through the mounting hole, and the threads will thread into your replacement glove box, they are too small and will strip out the metal inserts in the box. Just a heads up that you might want to pull that product unless this was a one off situation. Happy with my glove box though, very sturdy.
