I spent yesterday cracking my quarterlights on my mk1 to swap out the manky perspex. By some miracle I have managed to salvage all the screws except for one. Any suggestions on where to get a replacement or to make a suitable one out of something else (blue peter style)?
Thnx
Ben

Re: Mk1 quarterlights - replacement screw
If you mean the small c/sunk screws which hold the frame together, they are CMZ 0204 or 6-32 unc x1/4". Stig fasteners do a stainless steel version.

Is the lug that joins the frame to the hinge also available? A couple of mine have rusted and broken.

Re: Mk1 quarterlights - replacement screw
If you mean these they are quite easy to make. I replaced using screws and tapped holes instead of the two rivets. I had to grind the back of the screws flush.

Re: Mk1 quarterlights - replacement screw
I've got two or three original chrome screws if OP or if anyone needs.
