headlight cover mounting screws
Hello,
I (foolishly) lost 2 of the 4 screws that are used to mount the headlight cover to the headlight assembly. Does anyone have any idea where I can buy just 2 or maybe a 4 pack of these. GM doesn't have a part number for them as I imagine they come with the headlight cover when you buy it. I could try home depot but they always seem to make you buy a box of 100 so then what do I do with the other 98
Thanks for any help.

If you can't match them up at the hardware store, give Marc at VetteNuts a call. Bet he has some.

The ones that hold the cover in the back (engine bay) are stainless steel phillips head screws. The ones that hold the covers on the side are Torx.

Hmmm, interesting. All 4 of mine that hold on the lid are Torx head w/captive washer. Only the (black) shrouds are held on with (black) Phillips head screws.
