  Hey guys,
Im assuming the nails I need to use to put the wood in a 34 3 window are gonna be hard wood nails, correct ?
Im having a hard time finding the correct nails I think.
Can anyone advise me about putting in wood ?
Thanks ..

  Hardwood trim nails are available at any decent hardware store. Around here, they are typically MAZE brand. They are very dark blue, nearly black. They are available in all sorts of sizes.
It's usually wise to drill a hole through the wood at a smaller diameter than the nail itself. This will help avoid any splitting.

  Nails around the rear window frame work to the body are typically galvanized brads, the wood is not that hard.
