Top mounting hardware

Well, i put my top back on(got too wet) but when I was bolting it down, i realized i had enough hardware for only 3 bolts. is that enough or should i pull the top back off to be safe. BTW what else could i use to bolt it down.
BTW again, the peices that i lost are the lil pieces of metal that the bolt bolt into.
Thx
Tim

Large washers would be better than nothing, but you can order those clips from Ford or Jeff's Bronco Graveyard.

yo,
Steve, I see that a few On-Line Ford Dealers/Parts suppliers are now listing the "nut", p/n n800925-s100
$0.71
but show it as for:
"Cab - Exterior trim - Step assy - Retainer
Inner - Regular cab Step assembly 1992 - 1996 ... "

Geno makes em too; URL for Geno is in my web page under Parts

That image actually doesn't show what I was talking about. It's the clip that goes between the bolt head and the fiberglass that the screws/push rivets grab to hold the inside trim on to hide the bolt heads.

I just looked it up on the CD and the regular clips are #6 PN 29126 "Body Side Window Garnish Moulding Front Bracket" and the ones on the angle area are #10 PN 29070 "Body Side Window Garnish Moulding Bracket". I couldn't find an online source or price.

I dunno - maybe he DID mean the U-nuts. I figured he meant those clips because they're so easy to lose.

yo Steve,
I think he did mean the U nuts:
Geno - Bronco body extruded u nuts - these are the fasteners clipped to the body (inside, under the side window trim) they are called extruded u nuts or fold-over nuts - thanks to Chris B for the info!
http://www.geno-inc.org/English/Products/products.html
...

Here is the one you meant, thanks to Ken (I believe possibly it could be probably what you meant...maybe):
