Unhappy Help! headlight adjustment screw
Putting lights back on car after paint and AAAAAGGGHH! missing one headlight adjustment screw, sorry for the drama but the headlight will not mount without this...anyone have a source for this or have a busted headlight I can buy and strip for parts? Suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Jamie

I think the "HELP" section of most parts stores carry them.

Thanks Mike,
Just got frustrated, thinking these things were unique.

Search not going well, looks like buying a new headlight assembly is fastest option, $120.00 + shipping for 1 screw. Time to water the money tree out back...

A google search on "headlight adjustment screws" gives these links:

Headlight Adjusting Screw | AutoZone.com

Headlight Adjusting Screw Assemblies

Amazon.com: Headlamp Adjusting Screws - Lighting: Automotive

Sorry, don't know which one would work but the second link gives a lot of specs.

Cheers, Rod

Talking
Thanks DV/DT
A good nights rest and a trip to my favorite true value, .58c later, problem solved. M4 screw and lock nut.
I gotta back off the energy drinks...no patience
