What plastic trim are you talking about? Electric seat control bezel? There are two different size screws. Seat track covers? Those are plastic pins. Screws for the seat track? There are many.

Call Lyle over at c&s corvette. He will know.

Also, maybe you can buy the screw from this listing separately.
