Intrument cluster hood question (screws)

[OBD1 kenobi]

Hey guys, Im taking off my old cracked cluster hood. The current one is held by spit, glue and incorrect screws. Can somebody tell me what size, type of screws(oem) go on the underside of the hood. Specifically the 2 screws that go on each side of the steering column and are pointing up. I would like to go get them at my local hardware store before I get home and start working on it. Since I dont have the original ones, I want to replace them. Thanks for your help.

I have some spare screws if you want the OEM ones, I really doubt you can find the exact matching screw at hardware stores. Maybe Ace Hardware would have a better selection, it just a course thread screw though. Should be the same as the ones that hold your dash on.

If you have a photo of the area in question missing the screw I can tell you what you should be looking for and or if I have an extra to spare (most likely I do)

Most likely these.

Thanks for the offer Randy. I will send you a PM to see if we can meet. Thanks everybody for their input and sorry for posting in the wrong area. Using tapatalk on my phone is not as intuitive as I would like.
