Control panel screws!

[Arash]

I wonder if anyone can help, we are at a loss!! Our control panel was sticking and we bought a new one from VW. We have not been able to have it fitted as the autoelectrician said the screws are no good and we needed to get new ones. We have tried everywhere we could possibly think of, starting with VW who were no help, said we had to buy a whole new control panel. Since then we have tried; lots of screw retailers, car garages, computer repair places, even opticians as well as lots of internet searches. Obv without this the van has very limited functionality, no good for the summer!

I have attached photos of where the screws go and of the old screws.

Does anyone know how I can get hold of these screws, the exact size, anything at all?!

We are happy to pay whatever is required within reason to source these as we haven't used the van properly for months now.

You will be a lifesaver!

Thank you.

Measure the diameter A including the thread and the length B from the bottom of the head and Google: Amm x Bmm pan self tapping screws and you should find them. It doesn’t matter if they’re pointed instead of flat ends. Or buy a set like this:

Thank you all so much for such quick, helpful replies already! Have contacted ElectronicEquipmentRepairs and will also try Orbital Fasteners. Have already bought that set from Amazon, unfortunately none just the right size!
