Euro Headlamps Part ID?

Working with Classic Center to ID screw and back plate/washer that secures bowl from their schematic which is not the best. If anyone has drawing, maybe its parts 671 and 733, maybe? Note black screw in center hole of flange on driver side lamp. In photo of passenger side lap, three holes clearly visible on flange but now screw. I need that screw and the plate it screws into.

The screws that hold the bulb reflectors to the headlight assembly weren't ever available separately....they only  came with the whole lighting assembly.  Only the rubber bushings that the reflectors pivot on were available, as well as the threaded retainers that the screws screw into. (part number 000-826-01-39).  You'll either have to rescue some from spare parts units or find out the length and thread pitch of the screw and buy them online or from a local fastener store.  The picture below should be very clear....hopefully better than what Classic sends.

Thanks UTn. So using your drawing those retainers are 87 and 90. Correct?

To me it looks like you are missing 85 or 86, look like a lenth of rubber tube.
