968 hatch side panel nuts
Anybody have any idea where to get these or something similar? They are bonded to the panel, but several of mine are missing and/or detached. I could make some if i had to, but I'd rather not.

No, I haven't, not much time for browsing these days. I think part of the problem is that they aren't supposed to be a separate part. I'm going to end up making them out of flat head screws and stainless sheet.

Be very careful. Whatever the bonding agent is for these things is crap after 30 years. I installed a 968 hatch on my 951 and thought I had reglued those bits properly.... wrong!
One side of the trim detached and broke off. I was able to save the other. I made a crappy repair with fiberglass, but I'm really tempted to drill through it and run bolts all the way through to ensure it stays on.
