Dimmer Screws

Hey fellas~
I finally got all of my brake pull issues taken care of and now I just need to figure out what size screws hold the dimmer switch in place. I put a new one in and have plumb lost the screws in the thick of workin on a few things at once. I would love it if some of you fellas knew what size screws those are. Thanks!

Stupid book is kicking my butt when it comes to breaking the hardware #'s down. I found a 42141-S (U-250), section 145 of the IPB, for the hardware but I can't find the section in the book that tells anything else.

Look on the same page that the part number is on.

If hardware is listed, it usually follows the p/n.

Section 130 / Page 2.

C0TZ-13A024-A .. Dimmer Switch (Motorcraft SW-263)

2) 42141-S8 .. Screw, Switch to Dash Panel or Front Floor Pan ~ No. 10 -12 X 3/4"



btw: Ford had a locating system for hardware parts bins (drawers) that the dealers used, that's what U250 refers to.

I read about the bin locators and thought that was pretty nice. Unfortunately I don't have a set of those bins in my garage to pull stock from. Damn it....

Section 130 of the IPB or the Part # book?

Text = Section 130 / Page 2 / basic Ford part number 13A024 / Third line.

El Monte Ford just closed, so....there will be an auction comin' up soon...a chance to buy parts bins, including the type with 2 ft wide by 2 ft long pull out drawers used for hardware.

There's a rabbit's warren of individual 2x2 inch slots to put all your hardware in. When you lift up the lid, on the underside...there's the corresponding place for all the paper bin tags to fit into.
