Default Headlight Bolt - Where to buy?

Does anyone know where to get the screw/bolt for the headlight?

I'm missing (or more like accidentally dropped) the long one that goes on the bottom. I tried looking and even tried driving around hoping that it would somehow falls off but came out with negative result.

Is the dealer the only place to get it at?

Thanks in advance.

dude there's a place in my area of town called King Bolt where you can get ANY kind of hardware you can imagine: 4680 N Grand Ave, Covina, CA 91724

go in there with one of your other headlight bolts, take a number (seriously), and give the bolt to one of the guys there. they'll match it in a couple of minutes, if that, and charge you a buck or two for it at most.

that place is awesome.

you're talking about the one by the turn signal for the 1 piece lights right? take the one you have now to lowe's and see if you can find one close to it. actually call the dealership and ask them for the specs first, it'll make your job much easier.

Matt - Thanks for the info! I'll hit up the place as soon as I have a chance!

hiwords - Yeah it's the one close to the signal. Also the one that's the hardest to put in! I'm probably gonna call the dealership today and ask for the size/spec and such just to make sure. Probably also ask for how much it cost. Last time I bought a bolt from the dealer, it cost me around $20 for one bolt.
