The headlight is held in by three screws and those screws are the only thing holding the headlight in. I lost one of mine. The headlight still is firmly mounted by the two screws remaining. I figuered GM put three screws there for a reason. The screw threads are rather coarse because they screw into plastic.

I THINK I understand which screw you are looking for. It is a self-tapping screw (one of three on each side) that holds the headlight capsule to the frame assembly. It does not appear to be available as a separate item. You will either have to rob one from a damaged/destroyed headlight assembly at a salvage yard, or take one of your remaining screws and match it up at your local hardware store or auto parts store.

The ones he needs are zinc galvanized (silver colored) and require a 10mm socket or wrench to insert/remove.
