It'* two 10mm bolts from the factory, but I was just thinking maybe we can snag some of the 'finger' spin bolts on 92-95'* and replace the 10mm bolts?
I don't have a 96-99 around me at the moment to look at for fitment (since I have a pair of 'finger' spin bolts right here in my tool box) but I bet they'd spin right into place.
My only question is if the diameter of the spin head is too big and would hit the 96-99 headlight bracket edge lip.

Maybe I'm missing something but I've never had a hard time with the headlights. What'* so hard? Corner lights, 2 10mm bolts, pull at the right angle and they slide out. I guess I'm just confused and curious as to what the problem/difficulty is.
