Anyone have a part number/source for the 3 screws that hold the headlight retaining ring? Bought what I thought was them but they are to large of diameter and length.

Should be a 4mm * 8mm pan head. Looks like Porsche decided that 8mm was a PIA. Most have been updated to 12mm. But a socket head easier and more functional. Easier to guide in and hold on too. My .02c.
Working on the same thing on the Rothsport Mexican 1000 rally cars.

4mm * 8mm pan head. Like this, but shorter ...............
