71 Headlight Adjuster Bolt Retainers ?

You must not be able to buy these anywhere. I can't find any. I have new adjuster bolts. The square part on the left is leaning on the rubber- plastic part on the right that the adjuster bolt threads go into. Does anyone have a fix for these? Thank you.

The insert looks like these.

It is two pieces, the insert and a clear boot over the top.

Can you get them anywhere?

I have a bunch from a box of 25 left over that are very similar to the original ones on a 76-280.  I will check this weekend and post a picture so you can see them.  I changed a couple of mine and they worked great.

I have 24 left with two kinds of screws 4 have round philips heads like the original to my 76 car.  And the rest are a more squaired round philips head.  I don't need them at all, I had to buy a box of 25.   I ended up getting them from some auto parts supplyer I found on the internet and had to call them and the owner of the place just happened to be in to old cars,  He said he usually did not sell to individuals, but after I explained my situation he thought it was cool.  They are as close as I could find to mine.

 

On the box it says Not supplied by OEM.
