1968-1972 C3 Headlight Black Plastic Shield Mounting Kit, 12 Pieces - OEM Number(s) (3846854)
Mount It Right—Secure Fitment for Your C3’s Headlight Shield Panels
The black plastic headlight shields on 1968–1972 Corvettes serve an important purpose: they hide and protect the headlight bulbs when the system is in the down (closed) position. Installed behind the front grilles, these shields provide critical coverage to protect the headlight bulbs from debris and damage when not in use.
Over time, the mounting hardware that secures these shields can loosen, corrode, or go missing—leading to rattles, poor alignment, or shield failure. This 12-piece mounting kit is a direct replacement solution for both headlight assemblies, providing all the necessary hardware to restore factory-style fit and function to your headlight shield panels.

Tech Notes
