You mean screws? By the way what is the finish of your light housings? I've looked at a 67 Dearborn, a 68 Dearborn and two 68 but don't know the plant.

Yes I mean the tab retaining screws (I edited my previous post, had *nuts* on my mind from reading previous posts when I wrote it...).

The finish on my 67 housings is zinc dichromate to the best of my estimation (San Jose cars).  Both the housings and the retaining tabs had a matching patina of surface corrosion with nice unexposed patches under the tabs.

Glad to hear that because the 3 Dearborns and two mystery plant housings all show ZD. One is in very nice condition even showing the overspray when they painted the white inside. All are unrestored so the plating must be original. From the pic I posted the tabs and screws were also ZD.
