Default Headlight adjusters


I'm refurbishing my headlight adjusters. The plastic part in the picture has a T part and a curled part. On my 1968 there isn't the curled part. I can see that this curled thing rides between the bucket and the headlight mount. Should this be part of the 1968 adjuster or is it one of those things the 1968 doesn't have?

Looking at the repops, some have the curled part, some don't
Ecklers


Keen




And on the mid-america sight it has them with the hook but clearly says
Note: 1968-1982 use requires removal of the hook shaped portion of the nylon bracket.

Thanks... Whew, another part I don't have to replace. I was hoping this was the case.
