Default Source for torx screws

Where can I find the torx screws used on the 1996 license plates, also believe that these are the same screws that hold the rear inner fender to the outside fender lip?

For license plates, most auto parts stores have them. But, for hard to find stuff, FASTENAL (on line or locally) is a Mecca of hard to find fasteners, of all kinds! And, I saw them offered at Mid America Motorworks

Go to Fastenal ... it will change your bolt/screw life .... that's my vote.

It's always good to have a "relationship" with a "local parts guy".

The variety of Fastenal is great, however they get you on the prices because they know a lot of their fasteners are hard to find. Try Albany County Fasteners for good prices & no order minimums. You can get them per piece or in box or bulk.http://www.albanycountyfasteners.com/

For Torx screws on licence place I recommend going with a tamper proof torx drive so no one can mess with it (and they look cool!)
