Viper body screws and bolts

[Nixon's SRT]

I seem to be missing a few body screws and bolts. I went to Lowes and nothing matched up. Anyone know if anyone has the matching body screws and bolts. Im missing 4 bolts on the shield under the car, my side sills are missing all the bolts underneath except 2 on each side. and a few screws around the wheels.

Anyone know where to pick those up locally or should i just contact one of the vendors on here.

So do all the bolts holding the bottom of the side sills look like the one on the left?

Most of mine on the bottom of the sills are missing as well, except at the rearmost end. I saw those hex bolts and assumed the last tech shoved in a couple odd ones he had laying around.

Seems every month or so I lose one or two more of the regular body screws like the one on the right.

What's the common way to keep em in?

I replaced a couple of them with those push in tabs like hold the hood pad on. worked well.

Same issues here...maybe try some blue loc-tite???

Never thought about that. That's a great idea unless others chime in and say it's not...in which case I will agree with them...ha

Get a tube of clear silicone chaulking and squirt a dab on the screw before you install it and it will be fine, works great.

Perfect, thanks.

So are all the bottom of sill screws the hex head?

Yep...shows to be hex head.

My tech warned me that a lot of the screws/bolts are metric on the head and standard on the threads ... causes a lot of confusion. May be part of the problem you were having.

These are not the body screws but someone might find this helpful in other areas with pictures.
