The Headlamp Adjuster Kit is an OE-style restoration hardware set designed for 1964–1967 Chevrolet Chevelle, Malibu, and El Camino, as well as 1967–1968 Pontiac Firebird models. This 20-piece kit restores the factory-correct method for mounting and aiming the headlamp assemblies, allowing proper headlight alignment and secure retention within the headlamp buckets. It is an essential component for classic muscle car restoration parts projects where front-end accuracy and detail-correct hardware are critical.
From the factory, GM A-Body and early F-Body vehicles used dedicated headlamp adjusters to precisely position the sealed-beam headlights within the grille and front sheet metal. Over time, original adjusters are commonly stripped, rusted, missing, or replaced with incorrect fasteners during front-end repairs or repainting. Worn or incorrect adjusters can make accurate headlight aiming difficult and detract from the overall quality of a restoration. This kit addresses those issues by supplying OE-style components matched to original specifications.
Manufactured as an OE-style reproduction, these headlamp adjusters are designed to match factory dimensions, thread pitch, and engagement characteristics. They are intended for use with original-style headlamp buckets and factory mounting locations, helping restore the correct relationship between the headlights, grille, bezels, and surrounding sheet metal. Accurate adjuster hardware is especially important on early GM muscle cars, where headlamp alignment is highly visible and directly impacts front-end fit and finish.
This kit includes 20 pieces, providing sufficient hardware to service both sides of the vehicle depending on application. It is well-suited for complete front-end restorations, headlamp bucket replacement, or detail-correct refurbishment of original components.
Auto Metal Direct is a team of true car guys with years of experience in sheet metal reproduction, car restoration and paint/body work. We believe that quality is not subjective! Our mission is to provide the best customer experience for the Ford, Mopar and GM classic car markets - both in products and in service.
Our panels are made from proper gauge steel and include all correct-as-original clips, tabs, flanges, bends and seams. Each time a prototype body panel comes off of a new tooling, we test fit it on a car. The marked up prototype is then used to change and improve the tools, and a new prototype is produced. This procedure might be repeated multiple times but, once the part is finally approved, you can be assured of a quality part.
