#1 S2/S3 Front side/indicator lights - lens to lamp unit screw

Post by iani » Mon Apr 13, 2015 7:37 pm

Has anyone found a source for the screws that hold the side/indicator lenses for S2/S3 cars? SNGB show them as NSS for the S3, the S2 item doesn't have a listing.

Ian, if you can say what screw they are, thread, size, etc. then they may be the sort that are sold by Light Aero Spares http://www.lasaero.com/site
Sorry, can't get to mine to take one out otherwise would look them up for you.

I saw a post about S1 screws I think Steve, not these ones.

They look like 6-32 unc, so these should do the job: http://www.lasaero.com/site/products/article?id=DJK1UL

Ian, they can be good source for hardware, but perhaps pricey being to aviation standards which always doubles the price. At least they are to a known and controlled quality
