Hi Everyone; Anybody have a source where someone can purchace the correct looking headlight trim ring screws? For 70-72. Thanks, Ken
Nope, we looked around for them and didn't find any, contact underdog350 on here, he has some from a bunch of junk I took him for #14!
Headlight trim ring screws at Inline Tube? That's the last place I would have thought to look. Who'da thunk? o No:
As I said in your other thead about these screws, if they're the same ones I got from another vender, they're too small to fit the holes tightly. Be curious to see how these work out for you. :TU:
How about www.ss396.com I don't see any reason that Buick would be different than Chevy in this case. http://www.ss396.com/mm5/merchant.m..._Code=LHR-K2&Category_Code=HEADLAMPCOMPONENTS http://www.ss396.com/mm5/merchant.m...Code=LHR-10K&Category_Code=HEADLAMPCOMPONENTS
Larry, Those screws do not look like the originals. They may fit the holes but the appearance doesn't even come close. Duane
Here are the screws you guys are looking for. The ones Larry posted a link to are wheel well opening molding screws. The problem I have found with using anything but the original screws is they open up the holes/threads in the buckets, so once you put them in you can never go back to the correct screws if you find them. Then you need to find another set of headlight buckets and start again. Duane PS. These are not for sale and have all been taken off original cars.
Here's pics comparing originals (the two in the middle) to the screws I found. The one on the far right had the head closest to original, but the thread body was smaller and was loose in the holes. The one on the far left is the one I used. It's slightly bigger, with a bigger head, and like Duane said, once you use these you can't go back to original. Most people would never notice the difference once on the car. I found these at the local hardware store.
