Default Drivers side knee bolster

On the drivers side knee bolster metal part held in with I think 3 bolts there is a place for 5 screws to hold the plastic and carpeted part. The top two seem to be a coarse sheet metal screw what are the 3 at the bottom edge. Me and my old back really not up to crawling under there too long to play around. If someone knows or has 3 out of a parted out car it would be a big help. My cars PO played with a alot and always had parts left over from what I can see. I think this is just about the last of his improvements undone..

Hi Dave,

I see we're practically neighbors. Re your knee bolster, why not use any sheet metal screw that will fit? They're well out of sight.

I believe they are M4.2-1 41x20. I got them at a hardware store, Hillman brand. They will be in the nut and bolt aisle, but in the auto specialty drawers. Probably in the Body Bolts drawer, but you'll have a good time looking through all the drawers, at least I did. Lots of neat stuff in them.
