Hi all would someone have a picture of the placement of the screws that hold on the tr3 rear interior panels on a post 60K . The top bow holds a lot of it in, but there are some screws there also. I see the holes where a couple of them go, but i am not sure.

Hey Steve,

Here is a pic of mine, 60732

The original spacing is not consistent, so I suspect they did not use any sort of a template at the factory. I think they just drilled using the TLAR method (ie., that looks about right)

how about foam board at the local office depot, paint some fiber glass on it to waterproof it and it should work. I think thats what I would use if I were doing any pannels

Thanks for posting John, the TLAR system on mine is very similar to yours. On the little piece above the wheel well it was only screwed at the outer edge huh? I did find a screw on the one side that was on the inside in the middle, but again, it is difficult to say what the hole was used for. Your car is going to be very nice when you are done. You really should win some shows with that plus it would not be just a wallet comparison because you did the work, good job.
 
From my boat building work, fiberglass resin tends to melt styrofoam quickly.
Not sure how it would re-act to foam board.
 
Before you get all the capping installed you may want to locate the hole for that 'inside out' lift-the-dot fastener that the stick cover will be looking for.
