Boot Hook Screws?

Post by davery »

When I was removing my boot hook the screws were really tight and they stripped out. It looks they are going to be tight to get back in. Anyway, anyone know where I could get a few of these?

I usually end up going to a good hardware store (read as not Home Depot), bring the original to match it up. I would also recommend a Robertson head. :wink:

I found a screw with a phillips head. The head is not rounded like the OEM, but it will work.
