I am working on a late 1931 coupe with split window riser shafts that require the pointed set screws for securement. The vendors seem to only have the handles that are secured with pins. Do I need to cut threads into the pin holes or what? Any suggestions?

Have you asked several vendors?
Someone must have the correct style, as I've seen them before.

Right, Tom! I do need to research this further. I have been using Bratton's for so long I forget about the other vendors.

Local Auto Upholstery Shops usually have a "junk" box of various fasteners! AND, they know ALL the "TRICKS"
