Window Motor Screws

Anyone happen to know what size the three screws that mount the window motor to the door are? I somehow managed to lose mine and don't really want to drop 35 bucks to get the whole install kit just for three screws. Theyre three t20 torx screws and not the four that mount the motor to the regulator.

Try this:

I believe they are the part number 07149172104, or may be not. Should not be too expensive, but no sites lists its size and thread pitch. The mounting kits are about $20. More than likely a coarse thread screw.

Not that number. Those are phillips head screws and the motor mounts are torx. I think that number is to the screws that mound the interior door handle/tweeter. Ill probably resort to buying the kit. It just irks me that Im paying 35 dollars, after shipping, for three tiny screws

Torx

Any decent hardware store should have drawers full of Torx screws.

The problem being I dont know the thread size of the screws I need. I dont have any of the screws for reference. If I did this whole issue could be sorted in about 1 minute at home depot.

The other door has the screws in it. But I'll gladly pay the 30 bucks itll cost to get the kit to avoid taking the door card off the passenger side.
