I am looking for ... interior screws to hole on door pockets. stainless preferably
And
Headlight screws that hold the plastic surround ons.. a few sets
And
Stainless screws to hold Speaker pods on
And
Stainless screws to hold the lower valance on as well as the tread plate on the long on.. And
What decent headlights are going to shine brighter than the usual sealed beems with out modification to the wiring
And while I am asking questions
What are a decent 6 inch 3 way speakers, 6 inch sub and head unit with a decent output?

That is all I am going to ask at this moment (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif)

Places like Belmetric will have almost any fastener you are looking for. It’s the easiest way to get the material, size and screw or bolt head that you want.

Belmetric FTW. I really like their black oxide stainless parts.

The 914rubber led headlight kit is plug and play, and a good price as well. I just added that to my car last week.

Your local hardware store might have some of what you need, but be prepared to be disappointed. Fastenal might be good, might not, if you have them around.

I used Belmetric, and put together a descent list that might save you some time on PET:

BTW - I would increase the length of any screws that might be going thru new upholstery .. The new foam actually made a difference and caused me some headaches here and there, and door pockets retaining screws were the main ones! (not even sure if they made it on my list ^ now that I think of it). Feel free to add to that thread anything helpful that I forgot, I'm sure there's plenty.

I'll take two sets off your hand and reduce your cost even more. Let me know how much and where to send $ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
