I assume you're talking about the "oh *****" handles? They are attached to the a-pillars with 8mm nuts. What size bolt? Who knows?

There's a guy on NLOC that works on the line that makes the L's... Pose the question to him, and see what he says. His screen name is "SVT" ...

Talking SORRY BRO. THIS IS NOT TRIM SCREW??

:santa: The grab handle nut which is 8MM is not consider to be trim because this is nut that attachs to a bolt that connects to pillar frame headliner etc. yes but this no.
