Default did you lose the originals?

would you have to replace the bolts with torx? it would seem to me that any 6mm bolt would do... but i never did a headlight assembly so i very well might not know what i'm talking about.

you don't need the torx bolts.. any bolt with same thread will do.

Default Not from the dealer.

I ordered some replacements from Clair and my dealer and received allen-head bolts that looked nothing like the originals.

Save some money and go to a hardware store.
