Wiper Motor Missing Screw
I have a problem which I hope the Corvette Forum Community can help me with.
I recently had to change out the Wiper Motor on my 99 Navy Blue Coupe. Everything went just as was supposed to have gone, until.
The last screw (T30 Torxhead screw) would not budge after repeated attemps (and a can of penetrating oil). I had to drill the screw out.
Now the issue is that I need a new screw. No one seems to carry this particular type of screw. I have even gone as far to contact the Corvette Plant to no avail.
Can anyone give me any ideas on where I can get this particular screw?
I look forward to any feedback.

Do you have a Fastenal store near you? Google them to get locations. I'll bet they'll either have one or can get it for you.
PS- I just checked, there's several Fastenal outlets in Mass, not sure which city would be best for you though. Good luck!

Thanks Wildcat - John
I would be more than happy to pay for the screw if you have one avaialble. Please let me know if you have the screw to send and what you would need to take care of the shipping as well as the screw it self and I will send you my information.
