They mount on the bucket to adjust the amount of travel. It is a stop adjustment.

The bolts are only supposed to just barely touch the tabs on the headlight bucket when the headlights are in the fully open position to prevent the light from vibrating when open. If you remove those bolts you'll see that the headlights will still stop just fine in the open position, there is no "stop" needed at all. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |

Go in and ask for a headlight antivibe bolt. |
