back up light - housing screw

[Crom Cruach]

Would any one know the thread and pitch of the two screws that hold the reversing light housing to the rear bumper? Or better still have a spare you would post to me? I sheared one off when I removed the bumper

Hey Paul,

I'm thinking this might be what you're looking for.

I don't have such a beast kicking about, hopefully someone might.

I believe he is looking for the screw that secures the housing to the bumper. 

Those are the screws for the lens to the housing. Good to know they make those now. 

I believe they are just a Philips head short screw for the housing to the bumper.

Awesome detail Scott - why can’t I like or thank your posts? Is it because you’re Canadian? 😂

That feature isn't available under the 'non-member' classification.

My bad.... I thought he might be looking for the fancy "shouldered" one. 

My Gaelic must be a bit rusty.

Is it common for the rear bumper to twist like that ??? 

I had the same issue with mine, got worse after Montelishi came back from painter's. Got it straightened out though.
