Default Headlight Screw Part #?

Hi all,

My left headlight is out, and I was trying to get the two screws holding the headlight assembly out, but one of them is completely worn away. I think I can still get it out, but I'd like to replace all four of them.

Did a search on the forums, and the RAVE manual...but no luck. Anyone happen to know the part number, or a screw size for replacement. Thanks in advance.

After fighting with the screw for about 2 hrs...decided to cut the plastic around the screw connecting to the headlamp assembly. Popped right out, and now using a large rubber washer to fill in the space.

As for the screws, I spent a good amount of time crawling around the bins at the hardware store and got three different sizes for 11 cents a pop. Not sure of the size, but a perfect fit. I'll check on the sizes, and post here in case anyone has the same problem.

Thanks all

Most any screw of about the right size will work because the hole is not really threaded like a proper nut or threaded bolt hole.
