Fasteners for rear louvers

[Duster360LA]

I was very fortunate to locate what appears to be an original aluminum louver from a Duster and clean it up for use of my 74 Duster project. The louver is in very good condition and the top hinges are intact. What I need help with is fabricating the lower fasteners that hold the bottem of the louver against my rear window. The bottem of the louver has the spring-loaded interlocking piece, but I dont have any idea whe the pieces look like that either mount to the rear window or window trim to hold the louver down. Might anyone have a louver setup like this who could send me a picture of the missing piece? I've included some photos of the latch mechanism. The last two are of the latch mechanism where it would fasten to the bottem of the window.

Hey, I can't help with parts or pictures and hope you get what you need. I like louvers but have not seen any on a Duster. I would like to see pictures if anyone has any.

Here's a general idea of what you might be making:

The ones I remember slipped under the window gasket and were far less elaborate than those.

Just an update if it's helpful to anyone, there's a company called Southco that makes those quarter turn type fasteners. This may or may not be what OP needs, there it is.

Just wanted to wrap this up. I contacted Southco and they were very nice, but they didnt make anything that would work with what I had. I decided to make my own out of 3/8ths inch tubing and a couple of small patches of sheet metal. I'll post a picture of them as I began to clean them up and do finish-out.

I put 3M adhesive on the back of the plates and secured them. They held very well, the louver is very securely against the window!
