Default Headlight Bezel Screws?

Who sells replacement headlight bezel screws? I am talking about the (6) black screws that screw into the metal C-Clips behind the bezels that attach the bezels.

I have some metal Phillips-head screws that are the same size/thread, but the stock screws have a free rotating metal shrowd (like a cone-shaped attached washer) that keeps the screw heads from cutting through the plastic bezels when tightened.

Any chance that anyone would carry these locally? I live in Mole's Town!

There is probably a proper term for this type screw?

Napa has a good display of replacement auto trim screws.

I think it is just called a trim screw & the washer is a countersunk or cup trim washer, non flanged.

Check with one of the used parts vendors on the forum. Chances are they would have a few.

The 2nd one from the left looks pretty close but the the ones in the photo look like they have a slightly convex Phillips head where the stock ones are flat head Phillips. Probably because of the tight clearance between the headlight bezel and the surrounding body panels.

Some years ago, I purchased 100 various black screws from that large national auction site.

There are different head types Flat, Button, Oval, Pan, Fillister & Truss Head, I think what is pictured is an Oval.
