Headlight hardware?
Anyone know where I can buy the bolts the headlights pivot on? They have a torx head and a plastic sleeve they set in. For some reason mine lost one and I have it temporarily rigged with a smaller bolt. It works but it isnt exactly pretty.

I had one that had been replaced by a previous owner and everytime I hit a bump the headlight would shake. By chance, I found a member selling parts from a damaged headlight that included the pin and bushing and problem solved. I'd suggest you try Marc at Vettenuts, he parts out a lot of cars and might have some damaged headlight units that he could pull the part you need. As you may already know the Chevy dealer will be no help in obtaining parts for the headlight assembly.

JW Motoring was having them reproduced at one time. I don't recall if they came with new nylon sleeves or not, probably not.
