Need headlight buckets that align with screws from the back, or just longer screws

Does anyone make a headlight bucket for a sealed beam where the two alignment adjustment screws are accessed from the back side?

If that is not available, are longer adjustment screws available so I can make them accessible from the back side?

I'm eliminating the headlight bezel and having just the headlight retaining ring pass through the fender opening for a smoother look.

frenched headlights

In the old days before so much plastic parts it was easy. If you can find an older car with all metal parts you can take them apart and move the pieces around and re weld them in the reversed locations.
