Lost the screw [#8 torque hex screw tapered out of the top cntr of tailight, went down the garage floor grate] so went into Chevy parts dlr and they want $21.00 + tx for 10 [only in a pkg] so any one have any info where to get this just one item ???? Thanks >>>

 

Home Depot? ( does not have to be a torque hex head)

 

That's Torx (or generically since the patents have expired, star head). And C6 DVL is correct, it doesn't have to be a Torx head fastener unless you're doing a NCARS restoration. An ordinary Philips head screw from Home Depot will work fine.

 

Sounds like they gave you the government price

 

Give me your address and I will send you one (no charge)

 

Wate till the car is 30 years old and you need the 'correct' screw for NCRS certification. $20 for a screw will seem cheap!

 

You can always get a screw at a Chevy dealership.
