Nate-

I don't get it...You spend all the time to clean and polish the top, and
you won't spring a lousy $12.00 - $16.00 for the bolts to complete the job?
Sheese! You prolly paid that much for polish and cleaners. What gives?

Subject:        pop-top carriage bolts

I am in the process of restoring an abused '83 westy. I recently
thouroughly
cleaned and polished the pop-top. The top now looks great with the
exception
of the very rusted bolt heads. I looked everywhere for replacements, but
was
only able to find them at the VW dealer for an alarming $2 - $4 each. Does
anyone know of another source for these metric bolts?

Thanks,
