Heater controls bolt to hold it in place - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I had to replace the heater controls on the 68 and the previous owner drilled out both of the bolt holes and put in bigger ones. No idea why but now I have new heater controls and no way to lock it down. Does anyone know what size the bolt or screw is that hold this down to the dash?

Thanks

Mine have 2 sheet metal screws that are about a #12 X 1", don't know if that's correct or not. If the holes are oversize now, just use machine screws and nuts.
