Default Help w/ screw sizes-Please Help!!!

Hey fellas,

What is the screw size to mount the underhood bulb for a '78. What also are the sizes of the 2 screws that mount the air intake ducting to the body (passenger side). My body shop lost these when painting the car 2 weeks ago :mad . It will take me a year to figure them out.

Thanks

IF no one else comes up with it, when I get a chance tomorrow I could go out and pull the cover on mine and see what size they are and let you know.

This is a long guess as I replaced my underhood light three years ago, But I think the lamp nuts are 8/32 and the self tapping screws on the ducting are #10 self tapping.
