Particular screws for the Mk3 interior trim panel and ashtray bracket..

TheRiddler · 12-13-2010, 04:33 AM

Hey guys,

I'm looking for the exact sizes of a few screws for the interior of my '87 Supra. I've included a Crutchfield illustration with the ones I'm looking for circled in red.

Thanks in advance.

They're a metric sheet metal screw. Aside from just buying some new ones from Toyota or getting them from a Toyota in a salvage yard the closest I could find locally was a #10 sheet metal screw (It was #10 or #8... it's a bit larger though and will open the hole more but it works fin and they're easy to get.

Hey, thanks for the quick reply.

So you're saying all 4 of those are the same size sheetmetal screw?

Yeah, 1" long will do fine, but I believe the ash tray ones come at about 1/2", the one under the ignition is 3/4" and the one by the shifter is 3/4" or 1".... roughly, again, they're metric.

And no prob... although, FYI this would be better posted in the MKIII specific section.

Oh okay, thanks for the heads up.
