Default Rocker panel screws

Hey everyone

I want to replace the screws that were holding the rocker panels (top and side ones).
I prefer SS ones. I took me a lot of effort to get the original ones out.

I’m sure I can find cheap SS screws on Ebay, but I don’t know the specifications.

I searched the forum and found that some use #8-32 screw, others use #10-24 screws
(oval-head Phillips machine screws, ¾ long).

What about the screws for the top rocker panels? These are different.

I forgot to say that there is no Home Depot here in Belgium. The mayority of screws are metric...

So I will have to buy on Ebay or Amazon. That's the cheapest way for me and also the fastest.

You can order a complete kit from Paragon or any other vendor, that´s what I did.
