Flypaper, the screw retainer Tom has is identical and push on exactly the same as the one you show. The only difference is they are a little "cupped" on the top, other that that they are identical. Call Tom at R/T (if he'll answer the phone), he has them. Last edited by HEMICUDA; 10/31/15 07:27 AM.
