would a parts store stock headlight hardware? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I need the mounting hardware for my headlights, I just need the two plastic pieces that go into the radiator support and the spring. Or is there another way to do it without using that hardware?

Check in the "HELP!" section of any auto parts store. HELP! is a company that supplies all those little doodads like that. They'll be in red packaging. Good luck.

Take it with you and match them up. I know Pep and Autozone carry a line thats displayed in red card packages and that outfit make those adjusters. They have window cranks, seatbelt stuff, interior trim bits, that sort of stuff.

I have used the plastic snap in nuts like you use for holding license plates in and they work very well. Might be easier to fine.

NAPA used to have their "revolving parts rack of shame", or the rack that has all the typical GM pieces that didn't change for about a million years. You could try there. Hostly, though try LMC. They seem to have everything under the damn sun, but then you have to deal with them and that's a pain.

Sometimes I want to just scream at them to JUST GIMME THE DAMN PARTS!
