    1960 door panel installation

    Dose anyone have a good pic of the door assy with the door panel removed?

    I think the panel is supposed to have only two screws along the top edge, but these don't hold it securely enough when you attempt to bend the panel to get the side and bottom screws in. The panels have three slots along the top edge which one would think slip over tabs on the door, but there are no such tabs on the doors.

    Also, there are two holes for the round reflecters. Which hole is correct for a '60 or are both holes used?

    This isn't my car, just trying to help out a friend.

    Thanks

    On my 59, both reflector holes are used, two on each door. My door panels had slots in the the top metal support brace that slide over and down onto tabs the were on the inner top door reveal molding.

    As to the inner top two screws, I'd be interested in the answer to that question. My panels were not pre-drilled with those holes (as were the other holes), so I didn't install those two screws, however I have many pictures of 58, 59 and 60 vettes, some with and some without those screws, which is correct?
