Default Key Fob retaining screws?

Does anyone know where I can get the retaining screw on my OEM keyfob (02 GS300) - the fob itself is fine, but for some reason, they have fallen out of both of the ones I have!? They are so small, its not like I can run up to Lowes. Trying to avoid buying a whole new fob. Thanks

Check your local dealer. I'm sure they'll have some laying around. And if they're cool, they'll probably give you one. If not, I can't imagine they would be much.

They do not sell them, just buy the shell, its very cheap you can get it online for like $10 or less.

I used some screws from my HPI R/C cars.

2mm - you could go to any hobby shop.

All great suggestions. But just for future reference, the screw is sold separately now. Part # 89759-41020. I just talked to our parts dept. and got that number. But they have so many laying around, they just give them away.
