So I ordered a fastener kit to put all the headlight trim back on with matching screws and such. Which I did - but the kit had to many screws and some nylon/plastic squared off pieces in it. I couldn't find a place for the plastic pieces and I just stayed with the u-shaped clips that the trim screws went into.
I guess if someone worked on enough of these cars they would know just what went where - or were different fasteners used on Chevelles depending on which assembly plant they were made at?
And of course there were no instructions saying where the nylon/plastic pieces went.
Anyway the car is coming along - it is in much better shape and usable now.

Post a pic of what you have and there will be people who can advise you on their usage/locations. The square, plastic "nuts" may be for the adjusting screws for aiming or grille mounting screws, depending on size.
