other Headlight Bucket Question - Unknown Knob

[RAS-2002]

First, my thanks to everyone who helped me out regarding my 'unadjustable' headlight buckets.  The PO had reversed them for some reason, and that's why I could never adjust them to point straight ahead. They were reverse cross-eyed.  Using your sage advice, I removed them, cleaned them up, painted them, installed them correctly, and now all is well!  I can't thank you 02ers enough!

 

Another question:: On the driver's side, behind the headlight bucket, there is a knurled knob on a bent threaded shaft that seemingly has no purpose.  I've attached a picture of it (see yellow arrow). Does anyone have an idea as to what it is or what it's supposed to do?  The passenger side does not have one; not sure if it's just missing from that side or if this thing is only supposed to be on the driver's side headlight.  Any help would be appreciated.

 

Best regards,

Bob

It is a J hook. It is supposed to be attached to, and secure the front grill. The hook attaches to a tab on the grill, probably broken off. Both passenger and driver side
