plus 2 sidelight lens screw

[TonyA]

Merry Xmas all. Does anyone know the thread type of the philips screws that secure the plastic sidelight lens (two on each). Mine have a length of 1inch, diameter of 9/64 and are not magnetic so likely stainless. I dropped and nearly lost one, so looking to know what to search for as a spare 'just in case' Thx...

Think they are BA threads

@elanfan - Are they also Pozidriv screws? The ones on my S3 had the marks on the head.

I suspect they're plated brass.

The philips screw size for the plastic lenses of the sidelights and indeed also the tail lights of the plus 2 are 6-32 UNC. They can be bought in stainless at Spalding Fasteners.

Ps. for those who thought BA, not so: 4BA has a very close diameter, but at 44tpi, much too fine a thread.
