Anyone happen to know the diameter of the screws used to hold the binnacle cover down?

M4 x 20; part no A100W5177F.

SJ Sportscars in Devon stocks them if that helps: 86p each inc VAT!

Unless you are ordering other stuff, the P&P from SJs will be a killer on that part, so I'd just get some off ebay or any local supplier (it's only a standard setscrew, nowt special about it)

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it


...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

Thanks both, this forum never ceases to amaze me :)

I'm not going to go with those exact screws anyway as I need longer ones. I've had my binnacle cover re-covered by Sean at Inspire Automotive but since the furrows in it are too deep and narrow to cover, he's has to flatten them out, so I now need longer screws to secure the cover. (It's all a prelude to having the entire dash covered once I've put a little cash aside for that project)

I added lightness and didn't bother replacing them many years ago.
