Better Projector Fog Light screws

I have a 2000 Runner with the factory projector fog lights. I recently had to replace the bulbs and discovered the previous owner or some shop mutilated the screws that provide access to the bulb. Getting them out was a PITA.

Not wanting to face this again and needing new screws anyway I thought I would search for a better option than the phillips head steel screws.

I found some stainless steel socket head screws that matched perfect. Only problem...the only source I could find sold them in a box of 100.

So, if anyone wants me to send them six screws for their fogs, PM me. I will send you six screws for $2 (US Only).

If you want to source them yourself, they are M3 - 0.50 X 20 MM.

Send me your PP info. I'll take a set.. :party:
 
X2! I checked my mail yesterday and they arrived. Had a bit of trouble taking off the old rusted screws. The new screws fit perfect! Thanks again.
 
How have you been mailing these? just in a regular envelope? I have a ton of screws as well that I could probably hook up some members with once you run out. Don't wanna try to steal any sales :)

Feel free to sell yours. I have been mailing in a regular envelope, however once I sealed it I reinforced it with some clear packing tape. The first batch I sent out all had one first class stamp on the envelope, two out of five came back for more postage - go figure. I put two stamps on the rest. I also put the screws in a ziplock inside the envelope.

At $2 shipped, with the envelope, stamps, paypal fees ect...I really didn't make any money, but I had no use for these screws and thought I could help some folks out.

ultimatt, would you happen to have any of these screws left? I'm about to attempt to remove my rusted fog light bolts.

Thanks,

Raj
