#1: Grab-handle screws Author: V9977, Location: Athens, GreecePosted: Sun Jun 10, 2012 4:19 am ---- There was a thread about this exact story recently but search doesn't find it.
I need to go one size up from standard for the sheet-metal torx screws
that mount the roof grab-handles. There is no plastic backing plate in
the roof itself and one of the holes has been 'sheared' and can't get the handle to attach securely.
What was the verdict on which exact screws to fit instead to get a good bite?
Cheers.

could just rivet i guess?

You can tow the car from there now.
