Help finding screws for bench seat garnish - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I know this screw is an 8 x 32 just under 1/2" in length. They are the screws used for the hinge garnish on the end of the seat. I have looked a lot of places and I can't seem to locate any anywhere. LMC said they had them, but what I got certainly will not work. I'm hoping someone on the forum can help me locate these screws.

I am restoring some bench seats and I would like to use new screws in the garnishes if possible.

Some time ago I bought this trim screw assortment. Not 100% that it includes the screw you need, but the head looks very similar.

This is just a sample of what's in the kit.

I have a few of those screws. They do look very similar, but if you look close, the threads are little more corse than the one I need. Mine has very fine threads and it's USS ( standard ). I believe the one your showing and the ones I keep finding, that are close, are metric.

A truss head screw will be the closest to that but will not have the secondary groove on the head. HTH Jay
