Rob: I reinstalled my curtain track and was unable to find screws that were big enough to hold the track in and small enough to fit through the slot. So, I got some regular small screws and ground two sides down enough to fit through the slot. They were slot head so I could still turn them to tighten. Brent http://www.weidefamily.net/vanagon/

I was only able to find a couple of the screws, with several pulled out. Anyone have any idea where to find replacements? They are very tiny (the gap in the track to insert them is very small). I guess I can take one to a hardware store and hope for the best, but I'd love any wisdom from someone who has dealt with these before. By the way, its an 87 Vanagon GL. rob |
