alright I just got some clear front bumper lights and installed them today, but when putting on the passenger side one and I had trouble screwing back the two screws on the left and right, they were loose. so I took them off to see what the problem was. The flat small rectangular metal part that is behind the screw and meets the holder that is the groove for the screw was rusted out and fell off. if anybody knows what Im talking about please gimme a response on what the part number is or if you can fix or anything! I checked acuraparts247.com and checked the front combination light assembly diagraham for the part number, but I cant tell if its the right one, it says its a nut? any help/suggestions would be great!!!!!

 

Ah, I know what they are called, I have some at work. I believe they are U nuts, the parts you are talking about. It is a U, with one side having a hole in it, and then on the other side a part to grab the threads.

I've probably asked you before and forgot, but, where abouts in Mass?
