Interior Door Handles - Chrome Screws

Finally got to change the door handles on my Tiger from 'repro' units to genuine NOS units, and whilst I had to take the door panel off (first time ever) I noticed that I do not have the correct panhead chrome screws that secure the interior door handles in place.

Despite somebody using self tappers, I do have suffcient thread to allow the use of orginal screws so if anybody has a set they could spare me (please)

Looks like they are an odd size thread, hence I can't find anything that will fit :(

:mrgreen:


Cheers

The original screws were No. 10 UNF x 3/4 inch cheeseheads.These are not all that easy to find thesedays. NAMRICK do stock No. 10 x 3/4 inch hex head set screws which you can put a slot in with a hacksaw and then round off the corners on the hex head or you can use a M5 x 19mm pan head which has the same pitch as the No. 10 UNF. Hope this info helps.


I have just looked on the NAMRICK website and found that they now stock chrome pan head machine screws No. 10 UNF x 3/4 inch . They come with a posidrive head. Price 36p each.
