Headlight Bracket Bolt Size
I accidentally threw away my bolts that hold on the headlight brackets when I removed the stock headlights.
I'm talking about the large ones that screw into the frame and hold the headlights in place.
Can someone sell me their stock ones?
OR
Tell me the size and thread pitch so I can get some new ones from ACE Hardware?
Thank you!

If your talking about the shoulder bolts and plastic sleeves, drop these guys a line, they were able to get them for me.

Nevermind, missed that you were looking for the large one.

I'm not trying to be a tool, just trying to help. Isn't this something that just about any Chevrolet parts counter could answer for you by looking it up in their parts catalog?

I assume by headlight brackets that you mean the stamped angular piece that holds the headlight assembly to the side of the frame itself.
It helps support the front of the fender also.
The wrench head size is 10 mm. They screw into a captive nut that snaps into the side of the frame rail. The nut is encased in a thin sheet metal cage that is held in the side of the frame rail. I had one that was stripped out.
The screw size is M6 x 1.25, I believe, but if you don't have the captive nuts you will have to get them from the dealer or aftermarket bolting supplier.
