You can buy studs that have either I think 8-32 or it might be 10-32 threads
instead of a screw thread... and put a nut and lockwasher underneath. I had
to do that on one.. was fun putting the nut on... :(
The ones behind the windshield of my Sprite are like that ( threaded with
nut ) ... Yours might be,too

Subject: [Tigers] Loose tonneau studs
Several of the tonneau studs around the rear of the cockpit are loose, as
the
holes in the sheet metal have worn to too large a size. What are some easy
cures? Thanks.
