Dang.. those things are tiny! It seems your best bet would be to take another one off, put it in a tiny bag (so it's harder to lose), and head to a local Hardware shop, or a Hobby Shop for things like RC Cars and stuff. You might want to also bring the bracket for the lost screw, to make sure that the thread pitch is the same.

Just be glad you didn't lose one of those tiny push-clips!

Let us know what works!

stand directly where you dropped the other one and drop a second one, it should fall near the other one, and then you find both

What if he drops the second, and there was a big major wind difference and it falls completely somwhere else and he looses BOTH the screws haha.

It's a small screw used to install the Honda Access window visors. If you don't know what it is .... don't post.

Then why did you feel your post would be helpful in any way shape or form? Do you butt into people's conversations in real life when you have nothing to add on the topic?

your screwed bro, i lost two of mines. The only way to get them is to buy a new set. Unless you can find a used set for dirt cheap, you'll be stuck buying new ones.

Both you guys need to chill out, he asked a question that he could have searched, and you answered it in a way in which was unnecessarily mean.

Damn, I thought I fought over some stupid **** before

C'mon guys, we're all on the same side here...

haha i saw that thread....

well this sucks then...i have my one screw on the rear of the visor seems like it needs held there more then the front...

i guess my best bet is like they say a hobby store...cept the closest one is hour and half away. and i bet if i find a screw that works it wont be black!

oh well thx anyways...

If anyone figured out where they could get the same size screws and fab up some brackets, they could sell full hardware kits to people (selling a single screw might not be worth their time so much).

I bet if you took another existing screw to a jewler or electrical shop you could get something similar enough to work.

If i'm not mistaken the screws are similar to the wire mounting screws for switches/outlets.

Don't forget to bring along the screwless bracket, to make sure the threading's OK!
