Hi Dick,
As Mark says these where not original on the Mangusta. They where however fitted to Panteras at the front. I dont know when they started but my October 73 car has it. You have to look behind the heater to see it.
Here is a pic of one I installed. For the rear latches you have to have it discreetly coming into the wheelhouse with a loop on the end.
PS, those painted screws where noting to do with me! I changed them for stainless.
