Re: head light mounts

I thought they were a screw in, with sheet metal screws. Maybe I don't understand the question?

YOU are right, they are clutch head screws, there are about 4 different sizes in various places on that truck, so you may as well get the whole set if you are taking it apart. Unless you are putting it back to orginal I would not re use them!!

Re: head light mounts

Some slotted screw drivers fit pretty well that is how I got alot of mine out. I am just going to throw all of those away anyways so I wasnt worried about messing them up.
