Getting ready to paint and I want to remove them, but when I reached into the trunk, I could not feel a bolt or nut. Guessing it is a pair of bolts, but does anybody know their location?

This is for a 73 charger.

The bolts are in there but they held on with round cap nuts. Thats what you need to remove. I can look up location this evening.

They are right up in the corner, three of them as 72Charger was saying. One top, two bottom.

If you break them and need a new set, I have a pair with one stud broken on one.

If broken I think they could be drilled and threated to install a stud or install it with bolts anyway
