I use a screwe driver that is universal, both pozi and phillips, this is what you need pigtin! King dick is the make!

If you are really stuck, let me have a picture or a drawing of what you require, as I am still unsure, I will ask at work. they will know!

Cheers

Personally, I dont think it matters if posi screws are used to replace phillips, in fact, I think its better as posi are more practical.

I dont see the problem anyway. Originally, the car would have had chromed phillips, not stainless.

Looks positive, I'll give them a call.

And I know they're chromed Phillips really, but I can't find those either! And on the valance panels they rust quickly. I have the interior screws now in chromed Phillips, now I just need some 3/8" no 8.

but it appears you have to order by phone.

Might be worth a try.

What you are really looking for is oval head. I've got a box of 100 #8 x 3/8" here, and can get as many as you want of those boxes....theres a geographical problem though...

That looks promising. There's also Florida Auto Fastener who sell on ebay - I've had many trimclips from them too.
