Re: Tag Light

[Jimmy Peavy <peaver63@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The reason they used them was for trunk security.
I had the same problem on a 65 and ended up using some very small 
channel lock pliers ( about 3" long) from in side the trunk, turning the 
threaded portion of the screws.
I unscrewed them enough to get the heads accessible.
