The screws's length must be a little more than 1" IIRC.

Thank you, think I need some of the grommets mentioned in your thread too before I can fit them!

If you have a decent scrappie near you most older 400s or 45s will have them and can be removed and refitted in your car for much cheapness

The grommets tend to break as you try to remove them.
I used scrapyard screws to replace the rusty ones in FE54.

Need to be stainless or coated, the rusted ones I had looked horrible.
