I need to replace my headlight retainer rings. I found one tonight at pep Boys and the holes on the tabs don't line up

The local parts stores have discontinued selling these. Has anybody bought any recently and could recommend where to get these that will work properly and also well made???. I need two!

I'd bet one of the guys that part these out in bulk on the parts oard could sell you a set for next to nothing.

I already have a used set I bought off a board member awhile back that's missing half the clips

. I'm going to get a new set from board vendor Bill Athey

The rings should be the same as Camaros,Novas and other gm cars. We are out of them and back ordered.
