Pads for the ball head screws convertible top

[meisterkoechlein]

Hello I am looking for the documents for the ball head screws, on the trim strip under the Plastick disc in the convertible to attach the top cover. Later this was exchanged against Druckknöpfer, but the documents are according to parts folder the same. it is number 11 for number 12
Can someone send me pictures?

This is the spacer, or 'pad', that goes under the cover snaps on early Ghias using a wooden tack strip to secure the lower edge of the top. It's item 11 in the illustration. I would assume that it's pretty much the same size as the one used with the ball stud in the photo.

Unfortunately, I don't have a drawing for that ball stud, or know of a place where you can buy them. I do have an .STL file of this pad if you wish to have them 3D-printed. PM me if interested.

You can find these "ball studs" at various places around the globe. Here is one business located in the States:

The LOXX brand originates from Germany if one is wanting to stay true to our favorite vehicle.

So rcooled supplied these drawings of part #11...is anyone reproducing these??

Hello, it is not about the ball screw, but only to the disc underneath.

Understood...

Now, who's reproducing the disc (#11 in the parts book)???

Hello, I now have the opportunity to make some and will report the result. If it works, I can certainly do more. If someone needs which please register.
