Where can I find replacements for the studs the secure the headlight panel to the fenders? These screw into the panel with a self tapping style thread, and have 1/4 stud to bolt to fenders, most of mine came out of the panel, and when I tried to remove them from the fenders they snapped. I checked FMR, and 5.0 Resto, but had no luck

no pics, but I think they are the same thing used to attach hood scoops, and rear spoilers

If you can get a spare one, you might be able to go to your Ford dealer and see what they can do.

I am sure Green Sales Company would have some. BUT you need to know EXACTLY where it goes...so they can look it up...plus its going to cost you minimum $6 shipping as they only do UPS.

Ford won't have them. If you can find someone with some bad or broken taillights they use the same studs as well.

Hey all, finally got the pic for this piece we need. We've gone to Lowes, Home Depot, various auto parts stores, and the dealer as a last resort...

I have had good luck finding miscellaneous hardware here in the past.

I have enough junk parts laying around that I can just pull one from a wrecked piece!

As was mentioned, broken tail lights are a good source as well.
