Default Question about mounting H4 headlight outer trim rings...



As you can see from the pic I have the chrome H4s. Instead of painting over the chrome, I'm covering them with outer trim rings I bought from Pelican. I just had the rings professionally painted in guards red. The single bottom mounting hole for the H4 lamp is where the mounting hole for the trim ring is too. One screw holds them BOTH on. HOWEVER, the original mounting screw for the H4 lamp is too short. Is there a correct kit or longer screw that I need to get in order to correctly mount the trim ring over the H4 lamp? Thanks!

Yep!

Head lamp screw: 911-631-033-00
Trim ring screw : 911-631-132-00

Need 2 of each obviously, ballpark pricing is around $30 for everything.

How would that work? There is only 1 hole that the screw goes through to hold both the ring and H4 lamp on. It seems that I would need just a longer screw. I already have the headlamp screw. It came with the lamps but they're too short when mounting the ring over the lamp.

One screw goes inside the other. Believe me, when you see them together you'll have a big smile on your face. Or just look up the numbers and find pictures on the web.

I'm smiling already! Ilko you are a big help. thanks

So just to clarify, I wouldn't have to buy the headlight screw right? I reuse the existing ones on my lights? they would screw into the inner screw?

You need to buy 2 of each of the part numbers I posted. The headlight screw you have is only to be used if you are installing the "bare" headlights without trim rings. The top screws are shorter than the ones you have.
