Jonathan Pounsett Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Does anyone know what size the headlight fixing nuts are? Are there two nuts on each stud - one to hold the reflector to the plastic housing and one to hold the hole unit in the car? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need an 8 mm A/F socket to remove, so they must be M5 from that. I recall that they are a small, fine thread, so that also ties up with the M5 sizing. Hope that helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New stainless steel M5 flanged nyloc nuts arrived today. Perfect fit. Thanks @IanMc . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
