Mid yr head light bucket screws

[Gene M.]

There are screws securing the sheet metal bezel to the die cast aluminum buckets #9420684 and #9420683 using two of each per assembly. What is the GM spec'd head configuration oval or flat head? What is the GM spec'd finish?

I think the side ones are flat head black phosphate.

At the bottom of the thread are the specs for 9420683 and 9420684.

Gene,

They are both flat head phillips and the side screws are chrome plated with self taping thread. The bottom screws are black with machine thread and a taper where the thread starts. I have the original screws except two on my 67 if you need more info, the thread above probably got me looking and I changed mine back from the repro parts.
