Console Cover help
Many years ago, my console cover was loose because the screws that hold it on to the metal spring closure assembly were loose, so I removed them and installed larger screws to keep the cover tight.
That cover is now cracked in a few places, and it's loose again. I ordered a new console cover, and was wondering if someone could take a pic of the screws that hold the cover on to the metal closure assembly.
Are they the same as the screws that hold the top foam cover to the plastic?
Many thanks

I was hoping they were the same, but because the holes in mine were enlarged, I couldn't tell for sure, but I was thinking that they were.
I doubt if in can find the ones I removed so long ago. I will have plenty to take from the old, to put in the new cover.
Thank you so much for the replies.

Take a sample screw to Ace Hardware and see if they have anything that is a match. I have found many screws, nuts and bolts at industrial hardware supply houses like Fastnol or similar suppliers.. I don't know if they are available from GM.
Try AES Corvette Parts. they are a Forum vendor and part out C-6 and C-7 Corvettes.
