65/66 Convertible under dash brace hardware

What is the correct hardware for the under dash brace on a 65/66 convertible? I believe I've got the correct pieces where it attaches to the pedal support, but what about where it attaches to the dash?

Here's a picture of my May 66 convertible hardware. Pedal hardware on top, the dash hardware on bottom. Square washer was on top of brace at the dash. I can post picture if you need.

If you run across any extras of the block spacer and/or fasteners, let me know! I need them for a car I'm working on.

That metal spacer is factory original?
They probably got lost a lot when
someone was servicing the heater box.
The brace I removed from a car had a
sloted oval head screw which I knew
was wrong.

Here's a pic with the glove box removed and the support still in place. (along with a lot of dust, a broken pencil, corn from the mice)

Thanks twilight,
I needed that picture and didn't even know it! BTW, did you send out your stuff for plating?

Hey Bryan,
I sent a bunch of parts last week for plating. I still have a lot to do though. I soon as I receive this last bunch back I will send more. If you need a photo of the other end of the brace let me know I will see if I have one.

Good picture, thanks!
Seems like the square piece of metal
should go inbetween the brace and the
dash to lift the brace up to clear the lip
on the dash.
