So at some point during my drive yesterday the pin on the windshield header fell out, does anyone know where I can get replacements? It's the little dowel pin that the J hook hooks to on the windshield side not the big guide pin on the top side

I've not noticed them for sale anywhere, if it were me though I would dig around on CL for a local car being parted out. I just went out to the garage and looked at my car.... Looks like a bit of a pain in the ***, as you will probably have to replace that entire piece of the latch. If you still have the pin that fell out maybe pull the rest of the A pillar latch and see if you can get it back in there.

You have to replace the entire section

Cheap used.

Thanks,seems kind of like a pain in the ***, I lost the pin which is why I'm looking for one, I pulled the pillar down far enough to get a 5mm bolt to thread into where the pin goes for the time being but it's not as tight or the way iit should be

It's come out a few times before and it always fell on the floor, no such luck this time

If you do happen to find it and can screw it back in,, use som loc-tite on the threads.
