NEED HELP PLEASE - Lost a screw (OK let's keep it clean)

While I was installing the Rugged Ridge dash multi mount phone kit, I dropped the factory screw. I pulled out a flash light and have yet to find it. I assume it fell into one of those never to be seen again crevices. Anyone want to help me out by removing theirs and sharing with me the exact length and width (I can hear you laughing) so I can find a new one? Or better yet tell me an exact part number and/or place to order a new one?



Thanks!

 

Welcome aboard, and maybe go to Lowe's, Home Depot, Sears or order from Amazon and get a telescoping magnetic light that will fit in the crevice. You might need to remove the front "Freedom Panels" to get a good angle on it.

Thanks Doc for your suggestion. The problem is I have no idea where the screw fell. I searched for over an hour lifting up corners of the carpet and looking with an LED flashlight.

 

Welcome! Hopefully someone will be able to respond sooner but if not ill pull mine out when I get home and measure.

 

Gotcha, sorry I do not have that accessory, so pretty much got nothin'.

 

Best bet is to hit up your local dealer and ask for a 5/16 head trim screw...

I can't find the part number, but it's used on multiple trim pieces and the parts department probably has it in stock...

If they don't, and their service department is worth a crap, see if one of the advisors will get one from a mechanic.

I'll post back if I can find that part number.
