    Factory radio replaced
    I had someone helping with a radio install on my 2018 JK. They lost the little screw that is located under the sunglasses tray on the top of the dash. I can not find a replacement that will fit. The local dealer tried, but was of no help. Can anyone tell me exactly what size that screw is or where to find a replacement? Thank you in advance for any help/suggestions.

    Welcome! That small OEM 7mm metric bolt should be available at any hardware store. May have to try a few different ones to get the correct fine thread. I can't remove mine as it secures my 67 Design phone mount.

    Sorry Wayne!! You should be able to find the bolt at any hardware store like @aggrex says. I would get several different 7mm bolts in different lengths and thread types to make sure it's gonna work. Good luck getting it fixed!!

    I'd take a small screw over no screw anytime. If the small screw doesn't work one can always screw a little longer one. If you keep screwing around hopefully you will get the right one.

    Although. I have found a small screw will do the job sufficiently if screwed in correctly. It Will effectively finish off your current project at the time. And will allow you to move on to your next.....umm.. project.
