H3 Removed OEM marker lights - Need a patch (suggestions)

[jacobharris84]

I removed the lights and I am beyond happy with the look

I just need to find a decent way to plug the threads (obviously the old bolts that held the marker lights on are in the threads now). Any idea how I could do so? Or any way to make them look clean and flush?

The A pillars are not a worry as they will get replaced. My only concern are the threads in the metal.

I'd personally take it to an auto body specialist and have it filled and painted like oem new.
Of course budget is important too!

Any suggestion, possibly a chain/worldwide body shop that would do good work? Thanks.

They have plastic or rubber inserts like the manufacturers put in the threads so paint and debree will not get in try Mc master car.

The cheap route would be trim clips with a little silicone around the base.

Without knowing the size of the holes, it's hard to make a recommendation. Truss screws, painted to match and sealed, have the flattest domed head and might look okay, and may even be invisible from the ground. Its not really a big job to fill such holes with Bondo putty, but you should drop the front of the headliner, and back them up with fiberglass mesh if you do. Black isn't very hard to blend if you're patient with sanding and polishing.

Regarding the A-pillar trim...you may also wanna poke around this site (or just give the folks a call...their site is a little clumsy): https://www.hollanderparts.com/used-auto-parts/2007/american-motors/h3
