Dashboard Instrument Bulb Socket Screws
« on: September 04, 2022, 17:51:36 »
I am looking for a screw to replace one that is missing from my new harness. It is obviously smaller than M4, but I can't find anyone that stocks anything under M4.

Any advice?

Thanks,
Roland

Not sure what screw you are looking for but below carries most of what you need.

Do you have a good local hardware store?  My local Ace Hardware has drawers of metric stuff, including small stuff in the 2mm and 3mm range.

Hello Todd,

Thanks, I will give them a try. Went to HD, Lowes and the Auto Supply people and nothing below M4.
