Fuse relay wood panel question

I have a 1986.5 928S. Have a question on how the lower wood door panel is secured. In th panel by passengers fee, the lower door panel has 2 holes for 2 studs to go through. Are they wing nuts or nuts to secure them? On mine I only have the studs and that is it. Am i missing hardware to secure the lower panel?
Thanks in advance

It attaches to the top with two swivel ports and just push it to snug fit from the bottom.

So the 2 studs that go through the holes of the lower wood panel do not have any nuts to make it tight?

There should be a 10mm head nut and washer to attach bottom wood.

The lower portion has a couple of washers and nuts in recessed holes. The top has a plastic hinge that is secured by a couple of wood screws and a single screw on each to secure it above the CE Panel, to a mount on the floor board.

When you go hardware shopping, the nuts are specified by thread size rather than wrench size. Shop for 6x1.0 (6mm) and you'll be a lot happier than with 10mm nuts. The oriinal nuts and washers are yellow cad plated if that makes any difference to you.

Here's the hardware from an '89, minus the M6 washer that goes under the head of the acorn nut:

After you get your 6 mm nuts and washers
Make very sure that you have pushed the wire bundles away from each CE panel lower support .
Otherwise you can pinch wires and cause a short this can lead to letting the smoke out of your wires
OR damaging the O2 sensor wire harness
