Door truss-head bolts
One of these on another door is stripped and needs to be replaced so I can tighten up the door seal.
Anyone know a source for OEM parts like this? Is there a friendly dealer geared for on-line sales? I tried AB but no luck - and they said dealers are notoriously difficult to work with, with minimum orders beyond what even AB can manage.
For my other car I can order up little OEM bits online all day long with ease... :-)
What do you guys do for small bits like this?

Did the torx screw strip, or did it strip the the threads inside the window frame?
You have a few options here.
1) Keep the stock look- find a parts truck you can source the screws from (EDIT:I found a replacement screw in the post below. You can take that part number and find the part somewhere else probably)
2) Non stock look- Take a good torx screw from the other window up to the hardware store and find a replacement bolt with the same threads and length. You should be able to find something similar but maybe not a torx head, probably a phillips head though.
3) If the thread in the window frame is stripped- Get a tap and die set and cut some new threads and buy a new bolt.
