Hi,
Does anyone know the appropriate size/DIN # for the T2 sunvisor screws? The parts manual I have only goes up to '57, I believe. And NLA didn't know the size (they do stock the part though).

I believe those screws originally were chromed, and I have a chance to buy some chromed parts like that.

Thanks
Mike

Per the T5 parts book, they are B 3.5 x 9.5 DIN 7983. These are chrome plated, Phillips self-tapping screws.

These screws are also used to hold the upper aluminum threshold plate in place (9 per side).

Slotted screws were being replaced by Phillips head screws during the 356A production run. Neil's Book shows slotted visor screws and Phillips threshold plate screws on Chassis #103526.
