For some reason, my console on the dash (around the gauges) is missing both screws. Anybody know what size they are so I can get some replacements at the hardware store? here is a snapshot of what I'm looking for...

 

I've used #12 metal screws in several places....works for me. but I have not lost those particular ones, yet

 

I used some drywall screws.

Black drywall screws

 

they may be missing for a reason..mine where. are the tubes the screws sit in snapped off of the back? common thing to happen.

 

I haven't thought about that. I'll have to look this evening and see what the deal is.

I did some cleaning the other day inside the truck, and since then, when I hit a bump, the console will shift and slide toward me off of the dash. And no, I didn't break anything when I was cleaning... it has been like this for a while. It's just never been an issue until lately. I've always know it was loose, just hasn't been this bad.

 

The clips on the rear part of the hood like to.break ad well.. mine did exactly the same thing. Bought a good used one in ebay for around 30.
