[QUOTE="Bigwrench, post: 404531, member: 13822"] Our body shop guys use the cleco fasteners to hold panels in place for various reasons. I'd guess to spot weld or even see how they fit before final assembly. It's a spring loaded locking pin that you stick in the hole and it locks into it and holds it in place. Would be good for lining up drilled holes for pop riveting also I imagine. I have went up there before and they have had 30-40 of them holding a panel on a vehicle [img]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160121/14f28d084b21e4532ebb0a143036d13d.jpg[/img] I'm locked and loaded for bear at $38.50 delivered !
