    Hi Guys , It's been a long time (3 1/2 yrs),but I'm finally putting my 73 Mav back together . I got my 351W to fit with an AOD , the paint is all done and finnal re-assembly has begun . Now for the problem ... the small plastic grommets that the headlight trim screws into are brittle and falling apart . They are a small square piece that pops into the fender . Does anyone know where to get replacements or a substitution that will work . .....Thanks I hope to post completed photos this spring:thumbs2:

    Lowes had some that worked just fine . The selection at our small town store was slim , but I bought some that were only slightly too large and I touched them off on the bench grinder . "YANKEE ENGINEERING" Gota love it
