Default '39 convertible coupe rear window question

Have a copy of original ford convertible top instructions for the '39 convertible coupe. It shows six fasteners on the wooden bow and four on either side of the window. I have the six for the bow, but have no idea what they used for the other eight. These would be the fasteners that you losen to lower the rear window panel into the top well. Anybody know which ones I need to order? my top came with no hardware or instructions and I don't have the original to go by. Thanks for any help.

Here's a photo of the fasteners in use that you've asked about (it's of a '37 cabriolet, but the fasteners and their application is the same for '39). The other photo is of the uninstalled "cinch" fasteners that were used originally and on the '37 in the photos. The eyelets are in the left column along with studs used along the sides of rear window curtain. The studs used on the top bow with the wood screw threads are near the top in the right column.

Is this the same way a 35-36 roadster rear window would be fastened?
