Default help

I am trying to find the headlight adjusting screws to fit my 1948 Mercury, all I can find are for later models or out of stock. Any help would be appreciated. Tom

I don't know for sure, but I would imagine that the same adjusters were used up into the 50's as the buckets were similar. Do you know if this is so ?

I honestly don't know, my experience is mostly on imports, so, any old-timers know what years would work?

You may want to post on the wanted ad section. Do you know the thread size and length, how many you need?

These fit from 1941 up to at least the mid 50's.
