    72 head light retaining ring screws

    Burned out my low beam, and discovered that the retaining ring screws are rusted beyond hope - ironically, only on the headlamp that's burned out. I see that Doc Rebuild sells a set of 8, which is also strange, as my car has 3 screws per ring.

    Can anyone recommend a short-term alternative? Is this a "standard size" thread on this screw?

    Thanks in advance.

    You may be able to find suitable replacements from a donor car in the recycle yards. These screws were not Corvette only screws.

      Yep, donor cars can provide lots of parts for your car. You should have no problem finding the screws in very good condition, at your favorite salvage yard.
