I inscribed a few marks onto my fog light housing so I can identify whether they are mine or not, if I should ever see them on craigslist/ebay.

Actually I think I still have a pack left.. I'll go look for size. If not, its just a matter of removing whats there and taking it to the hardware store. They'll have a 'board' with all the sizes to test it in Or try a bunch of nuts that are around till one fits and get the size off that

I'll go look... brb

I posted that awhile back on CL, do a search under my name. Looks like that happens a lot in Cali, but I didn't want to take a chance, even though I live in OH-IO.
