    Is the center screw of the 3 vertical screws a sheet metal thread ? I dropped it as I was removing the window and the only screw on the floor was sheet metal. The top and bottom are 8-32 thread:huh:

    They should all be the same. Probablly in the life of the car someone else dropped that screw and put in that sheetmetal screw. :cry:
