Speciality screws for air box?

Dear Renntech forum,

It seems that two of the screws for my air box was tightened too hard when it was factory serviced last time to replace the air filter so now they cannot be undone without destroying the screwheads. It seems a bit wasteful to buy a new air box if I can manage to remove the stuck screws. However, proper and correct replacement screws seem hard to find. It would be great to know if anyone knows where to find these M6.1 30mm Philips head alloy screws with narrow unthreaded shaft? I have regular M6.1 30mm screws that I can use, but correct ones would be better.

Thanks for your help!

Hans

Dear Loren,

I did, it is M6.1 30mm Philips head alloy screws with narrow unthreaded shaft. Have picture too... Any speciality stores that may have such items? Amazon does not...

Best regards,

Hans

If you have a large ACE hardware store nearby, take one of the screws to them.

You can also try Fastenal.

Either of these sources should be able to provide an exact match.
