    SWB Front Trunk hinge bolts

    Hello everyone! We're working through the restoration of a '65 Coupe (#301365) and I am curious what the correct style of bolt should be for the front hood. The car had a hodge podge of hex head and socket head screws (8mm x 20mm). Some of the socket head bolts have KAMAX markings, so they're at least period. Porsche's current number is a 900.075.085.20, which is a hex head.

    Any ideas on what should be correct for the car? And am I correct in my knowledge that they should be clear cad with black phosphate washers?

    Many thanks for the help!

    -Geoff

    Yes, trunk hinge bolts are hex head, clear zinc with some black paint on them from when black paint was brushed on the hingesš
