Head light buckets?

Anyone have a good picture of the head light assembly?

I saw something called headlight buckets on SummitRacing for 65-72
Chevy trucks. But I don't remember pulling anything like that off mine
when I disassembled it. It seems like there where two adjustable plastic
studs and a spring that held it all together?

I looked on lmc trucks at headlights and radiator supports, but they
don't really show how everything attaches.

Yes, that helps. Item 3 and item 5. Any parts sources for those?
What are they called?

Re: Head light buckets?

Just an FYI here. I just recently bought some new headlight adjusters from the parts store in the Dorman section. The plastic nuts are too small to stay put in the square holes of the headlight buckets of my '69.
These little dudes are quite pricey too for what they are.
