Does anyone know, off the top of their head, the size of the screws that hold the corners of the side trim on? One of mine must have vibrated loose, dropped down behind the seat and is now nowhere to be found. Thanks. John

This is page 54 of the manual.I don't know which ones you're referring to. But I guess they might be the ones for the armrests? They should be the same as the ones for the lower side panels, numbered as 25 in this drawing. If this is the one you're missing, it's said to be "M5 x 16 flange button".

Thanks Javier. It is the screw for the armrest. I also just located the parts book online and downloaded it.

Bruce, I just picked up a couple at Ace Hardware. What finishing washers did you use?

The "arm rest" trim screws on mine are countersunk socket head fitted with countersink washers rather than the button flange screws. Such things have been known to change at the factory, never mind once they get out into the wild, I should probably just be glad that all eight screws were the same!

My armrest screws are the countersunk allen head fitted with the countersunk washers. The hardware store didn't have the correct washer so I got something close. It does not allow a flush fit with the screw so am looking to pick up something close to the original. If I find it, I will post the manufacturer/part number.

On my 2002 car the screws are fitted with cup washers to spread the contact area and form a countersunk look. I just remembered seeing some coloured plastic clip topped covers to match the leather. I might order some to see how they look.

I ended up finding some Hillman No. 10 stainless steel countersunk finish washers at the local hardware store. Hillman part No. 830756. They look good and allow the screw head to fit flush with the top of the washer.
