Default EBCM Repaired, Need Torx Screws

Hey guys

I recently sent out the EBCM and had it repaired. Now that it's time to return it to the car, I found that my FIL had moved some of my garage equipment, which also had the screws and now I have no idea where they are and neither does he. Anyone know where I can get the six T-20 torx screws for the EBCM?

Thanks!

Try Lowes or Ace hardware. If you have to Grainger would have them

Thanks guys.

So far...

absfixer stopped replying to my emails after initial reply stating he would sell them for $5 a set

Gene Culley replied right away but it will take 5-7 business days to get it in and then they would ship.

Thanks Chicago1!

So I just went to a hardware store and realized I didn't what sizes I needed. Anyone have any idea on the pitch and length of the screw? Any hex equivalents?

Thanks

No, unfortunately I kept them all together figuring I wouldn't lose them... I don't even remember what they look like.

I already sent Arthur the info but just for anyone else that needs it. Here is the size. I searched the net and couldn't find anything and that really bugged me so I figured I would just go to ace and measure them up so here you guys go.

So it's metric and it's m4x0.70

Here is a pic of the length in centimeters and the part number for the hex key from ACE hardware..You can also use a Philips head if you want that's what I used when I didn't have the oem screws. Hope this helps someone

Just verified that the size is correct. I haven't installed the EBCM back in yet but I did try a screw to make it was going to work.

Thanks Shawnt (chicago1). That was a major help!
