Identifying lost screw in Macbook Pro Late 2011

[RadicalxEdward]

It's the green circled screw in the pic below. Looking for size and thread info. I know the long case screws fit into it, so they have similar threads, but i can't tell the proper length it's supposed to be or where to find a replacement. (are they metric or standard?)

Also, if anyone knows what that bar is called or where I can get a replacement. A screw hole is stripped and if i can replace it cheap i might as well while i'm fixing other stuff.

Also I'm missing 2 short case screws. Anyone know if they can be found in stores or if i have to order them online?

(attached pic to post in case anyone looks this up down the line and the linked image goes down)

Try looking your model up on iFixit and see what screw dimensions are giving in a repair procedure that removes the optical drive. Here's one for a 2011 13" MBP for example... https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Installing+MacBook+Pro+13-Inch+Unibody+Early+2011+Dual+Hard+Drive/8529

That's where I got that picture from. I just added the green circle. None of the ones I've seen thus far remove that bar and therefor never mention the screw type.

Your green-circled screw (for the center bracket) should be 9.5mm length.

The short case screws are 3.3mm in length.

iFixit offers a replacement screw set for the bottom cover.

Thanks. Any idea about the threads? I guess i could just take one of the case screws to a hardware store to try to match it now that i know the length
