srr60 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I am sure that this is simple but I wanted to check. I am replacing some old courtesy light lenses and don't want to accidentally damage anything removing the bezels. Any pointers?Also, I need a few chromed replacement trim screws. Anyone know of a good source?Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Stoneberg Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Ace Hardware has a good assortment of chrome screws including trim screws. They are used in bathrooms as well.Rhettt, the Austin Buick group is having a picnic and get together Dec 6th at Bull Creek park. We would love to see you and your Riviera.

RivNut Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 If you're talking about the round kind that GM used on lots of cars for lots of years, you simply insert something flat between the lens and the bezel. The lens is pliable enough to give a little and come right out. There are three retaining tabs on the lens, that go into slots on the bezel. Get the new lenses through your local GM dealer, they're still a good part numnber. The guys on Ebay are just hoping to profit from the fact that we don't know this.I don't have it, but someone reading the forum should be able to supply the group and part number.Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RivNut Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 If you're looking for trim screws, try Mr. G'sThis link is to his page on screw kits. Perhaps if there were enough interest, he'd put together a kit for our Rivieras.http://www.mrgusa.com/screwkit.htmIf you go to his home page www.mrgusa.com you can look at PDF file pictures of a LARGE assortment of screws.Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
