When did the Germans switch from using flat screws to secure the roof to using bolts?
Thanks in advance.

From what limited info i could find, i am gonna gues around late 1943 early 44, as this is when the "late version" with the new roof design came into play. I have a early roof in front of me (1942 and it has the screws.)
