Thank you Dave. I will try that. I didn't drive it to work today, though.

I am curious why the part number is so different. I'm sure everyone 
knows that the BMC number for fasteners indicate size, type and 
finish. This particular screw has an individual part number that 
separates it from that sort of nomenclature. There MUST be something 
non-standard about it. Also, it was discontinued pretty early in the 
production run.

If I were a concours judge, I'd take 20 points off for a bad screw.
