High Level Brake Light Screws

Post by kpowell911 »

Hello, when I bought my Caddy I noticed the Brake light was cracked and loose. I ordered a non genuine replacement for less than a tenner which is suprisingly good. However, when Ive come to install it, the previous owners bodge has just taped it in place. There are no screws :(

As it was Sunday Ive had to pop to B&Q and got some temporary M4x30mm screws, they'll do for now but theyre not right.

Where can I obtain some replacement screws, or at least get the exact measurements so I can buy some decent ones.

Ive read all of the threads regarding breaking them through over tightening and how the stock light isn't exactly great from the factory, but Im hoping to make it better than it currently is!

Thanks in advance

The correct screws you require are 4,2 x 13 oval panel head screws with a combi head which I think is just a philips head screw (Not a pozi).
Basically they are a black phosphorus coated self tapping screw.
