68 Barracuda Dash Pad

I got mine from dash pad factory and it was the same deal. My original has what looks like small round metal washers that the screws thread in to on the ends. The new one has no such provisions.

The pad fits just fine and doesn't seem to need the screws on the end to keep it tight against the dash but I haven't gotten the car back on the road yet so the real test will be if it vibrates loose on the ends while driving. If it does then I'll have to come up with some sort of home made remedy.
