Shimano shifter screws.

I'm in the process of restoring a bike with 8 speed xt. The shifter cable covers are held on with 3 Phillips head screws. Anyone know what size they are so I can source some new ones?

Do you have the old screws?if so take them to a fasteners supplier

Being japanese they should be metric and bloody tiny, at a guess m2 or m2.5

I have some m2 amd/or m2.5 stainless pan head thay may fit, can pop a couple in post if you know size and length. They are not black.

Thanks for the offer. I am going to order a selection of m size bolts and will test them out. As for the fastener supplier suggestion, that was my first thought but I don't have any one near hence the post.

Try a model shop.
