Default missing a screw in headlight cover

What's up guys? Do any of you know what screw it takes to hold the top of the headlight cover down on a 02 t/a? it's the one that bolts to the side of the cover on the drivers side. The light can be down, but I can lift the lid up about a 1/4 inch, I can see on the side where it bolts down, and it looks like a screw is missing. I hope I am making sense when I decribe it. any help would be great. Thanks: Brian

Since I always have a ton of screws lying around in drawers and jars in my basement, I just took one of the remaining screws and matched it as close as I could (I actually had one pretty close). If you don't have a similar stash of screws, just go to Home Depot and match it up as close you can. They aren't special screws.

Yea, just take one out, use the measurement tools they got lying around to find a diameter then just match up length and thread.
