Dash gauge bezels screws - R/T Specialties

Did a few searches and found where Bill Alphin identified some of the screws as black filister head for the exposed screws in the gauge bezel itself. My question is has anyone bought these from R/T Specialties: http://rtspecialties.net/proddetail.asp?prod=1000100 If Bill sells them I'd buy from him but I didn't see them on his site. I did see some on his site but they are a #10 and I'm pretty sure that's too big.

Also, what type of fastener is used on the two small end pieces of the dash bezel set? While I'm asking I might as well ask about all of it, so, what size thread-cutting nuts are used on the top/right piece and what screws go in the radio bezel? Long story short, I got my new gauge bezel kit but none of the fasteners. And I don't see anyone selling fastener sets for it.

I bought some to bolt the gauge cluster to the frame. Unfortunately my dash is off getting a pad repaired that the interior shop messed up, so I cant measure it up for you. I dont really like how tall the heads are but if they are supposed to be there then they are staying.

Thanks. I'll do that.

Other than that, what about the radio plate fasteners? What size, shape and color are those?
