I'm looking for the correct one. Anyone have a picture of a dashpanel screw?

I have a collection of these original dash panel screws because I have replaced all mine with new stainless steel screws of the same size as the original screws. I did this becasue so many are always missing.

They are a domed headed, phillips, screw that is 3.5 x 16 mm The parts number (worthless) is N 014 087 That is TUV screw size designation. you can buy these screws at Home Depot or Ace Hardware for less than $0.25 each...
You can also get them from those Cool English guys who put the Stainless Steel Thing hardware kits together.

I also replaced my painted screws with new stainless Phillips from ACE Hardware. Looks real good.

I did the stainless screw thing on all of the visor screws, dash screws, door handle screws-looks much cleaner.
