Interior/Door Screws
Maybe I'm the only one that is "annoyed" by the interior/door screws...
Why aren't the screws Black (or tonal or even covered) and anyone here covering them?
That was mainly the only thing that bothered me when I got into the car the first time.
You can definitely tell I never own a off road SUV lol

Looks like you're screwed..... sorry, I had to😂
My guess is they left them uncovered for more of an industrial heavy duty appearance, which I love..
As to the color of the screws themselves, you can probably source black ones to replace the silver ones.

Hahahaha good one 😂
Right. If you take one out and head up to Home Depot, they have a screw size and thread checker in the nuts and bolts aisle. Once you find the size, thread, and length, it's easy to order replacements online.

Ali express is you friend for things like this - just make sure you use a prepaid credit card or one that allows you to generate a one-time use CC #
There are all kinds of replacement screw packages, screw head covers, etc.
My experience so far with Ali Express has been positive. I got a rear bumper cover that is better than the LR official one for about $20 (rubber rather than hard plastic) and mirror covers that are identical to the official ones for $30 or so

I love the exposed screws on the grab handle at the end of the dashboard. So easy to remove! Made it easier to run the radar detector cord behind the dash and up the A-pillar. Also made it easier to take apart the squeaking rounded leather trim pieces and stuff adhesive foam behind it. The hidden screws that help secure these trim pieces were harder to remove and install. The more exposed screws the more stuff I can fix myself and not waste time with repeated trips to the dealer.
I completely understand your sentiment about interior screws – sometimes it's the little things that catch our attention and can make a difference in how we perceive our surroundings. It's interesting how such small details can influence our overall experience with a car.

"...stickem on the backs is not industrial and they fall off. I ended up using clear gorilla glue..."
