Re: Source For Headlight Retaining Ring ?

Are you looking for original screws or any screw that will work? I only found 3 original screws. 1 is good, the 2nd 1 is OK and the 3rd is I would only use it till I could find a replacement. The screws are 8x32 flat head straight blade 5/16" long. That is for a 1970 C-10
