70 RR tail light bezel studs

Dreamcatcher · Jan 16, 2016

Anyone know any tricks on fixing the tail light bezels on a 70 runner? Mine broke the pot metal studs off when it was in an accident a few years back. It broke over half the studs off and I couldn't find any to replace them. They wont stay tight and I need to do something. Just not sure what to do.

Drill and tap for 10/32 all thread. Works very well!

Hi Guys, I have the same problem. 10/32 looks a little big for the broken stud diameter. Should I try it with a little smaller size?

Thanks in advance.

I drilled and threaded 1/4 unc studs into mine. Worked perfect. I just used some 1/4 threaded rod to make studs.
