Excellent, thanks for posting Rick. Would be helpful if you would post a photo of the shim beside a ruler/tape to indicate the length.

A couple of photos of the headlight buckets on my former 10 10 RS/Z. No shims were installed/needed.

I attended the MCACN show in Chicago this past weekend and saw Mark B's LOS built 1969 RS/SS that was a candidate for Vintage Certification. This is an original car with no apparent previous front end damage. As shown in the photo below, the original RS headlight bucket shims appear to be similar to those in the photos posted by Rick (HOT302) albeit with a less angular shoulder.
