No Screws, fasteners at the ends and tape underneath if the way they left Livonia. To some degee they have all warped in the center. I knew a guy who went to get efforts to attach a brace in the middle, about where the seat's bottom cushion would be, to keep them straight. After 3 years, they had warped a little bit both fore and aft of theunderneath brace.

The body guy on my car used several rivets along the rocker. He put them in the same spot as all the "screws" had previously been. Probably those screws were installed by a previous owner.
