mystery nuts

Every pointy that might damage the top material would have a closed nut.
Good call. There are other similar nuts like this on the top frame so that's where they probably go.(on the top frame and not the body) I wonder if some of the screws that attach the weather stripping channel stainless had these nuts on the top side? I'll take a closer look. I took very detailed pictures of this car during disassembly. If these are the only fasteners that are questionable, then I'm doing good.
