Cool Reinstall headlamps, advice

I am wondering which headlight bracket is for high/low the brackets are different does it make a difference? Been 2 years since I took them off, and I cannot remember which is which.
Also, where do I find replacement screws that hold the headlight brackets in place on the core. Thanks.

Are the buckets not marked at all? They really should just go on one way though if memory serves. The retainers are a two piece item sold as a single unit. You can get them new from GM still, shows $1.50 list on them, part # is 15705372. You can also get them at O'Reilly, I show part MTM * 42119 and list is $3.99, surely that is for a set or something.

Not sure if this helps, but "low beams" go on top; "high beams" go on the bottom.
