Default Headlight cover is gone...

Apparently my loose headlight cover flew off while I was on the interstate today. I was driving slower than normal just so it would not happen and it did anyways. The funny thing is, I didn't even notice it go . It must have happened during the one second I took my eyes off the road. When I got to where I was going I realized it was missing. It scratched the paint just a little but it'll buff out. Anyways, I just glanced on the other cover to see if there was a part number on it but didn't see one. Does anyone know if there is a part number for a headlight cover?

Somehow the screws became loose. How? I have no idea! I was driving slowly because I saw it moving around due to the the wind and it still flew off. Guess I wasn't going slow enough.

Here are the official GM part numbers for the 'headlamp opening doors'

93-97:
right side: 10138580
left side: 10138581

98-02:
right side: 10273622
left side: 10273623

They're listed as being the same numbers for Firebird, Formula, and Trans Am.

Those parts numbers do come up on GMPartsDirect:

GM LIST: $21.48

98-02:
GM LIST: $35.22
