In the center of this picture is where the heater hose connection is on the firewall. My problem is I remover the spire nuts that hold the screws. Does anybody have a picture of the correct spire nut that fits in that slot?

In addition, some time back I think it was Randall posted a copy of the hardware catalogue. I cannot find it on my computer. Does anyone have a copy they can post because it might have the picture I need.
 
It sounds like your into the final assembly...exciting times! Here are the pics. Sorry, I should have painted a lighter color like yours so the pics would come out better!?!

Oh...notice there are 2 different screw heads above. The normal screw would be a tapered seat on the left. One of the screws on my TR2 uses the brass bracket to hold the OD Speedo cable right, and the clutch line on the left, so the screw holding those tabs is a flat head screw as on the right.
 
Thanks you guys that is perfect. All the years I have driven a tr3 I never had OD, so that little bit of information is handy John because I knew the speedo cable for the OD on 1958 has a different route than I am used, but I have not gotten that far. Thanks Randall for being the gate keeper for those documents; it is much appreciated.
