Reply to "Saw This Mangusta This Morning on BAT"

Pat,   I may have noticed or not....if it was one of the two screws holding the headlamp bezel in place, not the round stainless bulb trim, those dang screws were literally hit or miss!    There are puny tabs that are supposed to be captured by the screws.....but 50% of the time, one of the screws missed....and no mater what you did, would never be able to fasten the bezel properly!

One would need to remove bezel, remove bulb, figure out where teeny tinyassed screw was suppose to be....then drill a teeny tinyassed hole in the tab and try to bend the tab into position to catch the screw once you put it all back together!!!  PITA!!!  I found no holes in the tabs where the screw was MIA.

I found my tabs welded in the wrong position....or it surely seemed that way.  I think I drove my car for years with no screws......totally friction fit!!!   Maybe there was one screw in each......cannot recall only that at least one was missing all the time....just like this one perhaps!!!

Cheers!
Steve
