What type of screw is used to hole the plastic gauge bezel on the gauge cluster for a '68 Charger? These are the 6 or 7 I think that come in from the back of the cluster into the bezel and are not seen from the front.

Thanks!

Screws don’t hold this on to the guage cluster, link to what your talking about? Thanks!

It is a screw that is somewhat fine thread with thread cutting feature on the end of it. I have many at home but am out of town for a week. Hopefully someone else can photograph them for you in the mean time.
