| Hilux Body Screw Sizes?
Hey y'all, I'm about to install the lights/bumpers/etc. to my Hilux body, but I don't have all the right size screws to attach them. I realize they're all a plastic tapping screw (Plastite, perhaps), but they seem to have a variety of lengths and diameters. Does anyone happen to know what sizes I'll need? Looks like the larger screws have a diameter of ~3mm and the smaller ones are either 2mm or 2.5mm. Is a length of ~1/4" what I should be shooting for? Any information would be much appreciated so I don't order a bunch of the wrong stuff from McMaster. I'd also consider buying a Tamiya hardware kit if I could locate one. Thanks! |

You can go to Tamiya.com and download the manual, it will show you all the sizes and how many you need and where they go.

Looks like I've been able to source all the screws from Tower, except for the M1.6x4 tapping screws. Anyone have any leads?

the M1.6 thats the ones for the side indicators right? those are hard to come by you can try McMaster-Carr or just glue them.
