niether- there were 2 "screws" used.. a stainless phillips 1/4-20 thread screw and the same dimensional screw in chromed steel. though the "skirt' has a square opening, it wasnt a cage nut, but a pressed nut, with a skirt on it, 7/16 hex, the incorporated "waher/skirt" of the nut is about 1" diameter. very similar to the spin nuts used to hang fixtures from a drop/grid cieling. all the original cars have these, over the years, i have seen ome repl with fender washers and conventional nuts, or even the same 7/16 nuts with incorporated beveled washer as used to connect the center valance/grill to the outer lower valances via the flush-welded studs of the center portion.- where 57s are supported, unlike 58 with this skirt from the support to valance.

On the 58,,,,The lower grill is screwed/bolted to a 'skirt' at the bottom of the radiator yoke. There are 2 screw/bolts that go through the lower part of the lower grille and into that 'skirt' What is the fastener that is mounted in that skirt to accept those 2 screws ????? I am thinking cage nuts or plastic insert????
