Default Screws for flip-up headlight cover

I have a 2001 TA WS.6 that I love, I went outside this morning to go to work and noticed that my drivers side headlight cover was raised up a bit and I noticed a screw was missind on the left side (i was pissed). The whole headlight wasn't raised it was just the cover (were the little "pontiac" letters are). I dunno if someone tried to steal it or something but I have had the car for a while at it never was like this. I was wondering what size screw and washer to get so I can repair the damage. I dont want my headlight cover flying of when the lights are up, and I am at high speeds.

Any help would be great thanks guys

And watch out for your car, chances are they'll be back to finish the job. Good luck.
