    Rear centre part: “bolt/nut” or “tapping screw/speed nut”

    I have a fairly detailed and potentially “geek” question.

    I always thought that the tapping screw was used to fix the rear centre part to the bumper corners.
    This conviction was strengthened because of the tapping screw and speed nut I encountered on a model 1967 and a model 1973.

    However, when I look at the PET, there is a bolt in the -68 scheme and a tapping screw in the later 69-.

    What is your experience? Would a bolt and nut be (more) correct for a model 1967?
