Driving along with the top down and the plastic piece which holds the dome light and catches the top latch fell down. It was held by the various wires, but both screws came out, their oval plastic covers fell off, and the screws fell to the floor. I tried to put them back in, but the "nuts" inside the windshield frame appear to be stripped, or broken. Neither of them will hold a screw.
What's the fix?
