Roof Rail Torx Screws - Rusted. Replacements Wanted
Hello.
There are 8 (4 on either side) #30 Torx screws and washers that are on the underside of each main roof rail of the roof/luggage rack (GX470 2006). They were rusted, so I pulled them out to clean (came out pretty good with some Rustaid and light abrasion) and grease, but I managed to loose one, and stripped a head on another because is was so badly rusted.
I can't seem to obtain them from Lexus parts without buying the entire system, and they are not something you can get at HD. Any ideas? Has anyone removed their rack and have the screws lying around? I will happily pay for them to be shipped shipped to me.
Thanks-
