I have a Powerbook G4 15" 1.67 and I had it repaired by some muppets called Azzurri in Preston (supposedly an Apple approved engineer) Just had my mate change the hard drive and he found 4 screws missing, 2 stripped and one loose inside the case.
Brilliant :)
Anyone know where I can get some replacement screws, I've googled it to no avail. Thebookstore and pbookfanatic.co.uk don't got none.
Any ideas?
PS they're the 3mm long philips ones from the outer case.

Are any of these (http://www.macrecycling.com/screws-c-14.html) what you're looking for? There are plenty of sites which sell spare screws for them, just Google "Powerbook parts" and "screws".

Cheers, I forgot to say I'm in the uk and don't want to spend 30 quid for a full set if I can avoid it.
