Chris:
By "trunk board", I assume you mean the board that covers the gas tank (as
opposed to the one that covers the spare tire).
If this is the case, the screws are black "pan-head" phillips. A black washer
goes on each (on the trunk side). Length is probably 1/2 - 3/4 inch. If you
got the clips (that slide onto plates welded to the body to pick up the
screws), I suggest you take a clip with you to the hardware store in order
to get the correct size.
By the way, I installed my TR4A trunk board from TRF last weekend. I
purchased a separate "installation kit" which included all hardware. A an
interesting aside, my car does not have a plate on the right side to
install the clip/screw. The board is pre-drilled in this location. Does
your's have the plate?
Good luck!
