I have a Tivo Premiere XL (TCD748000) that is missing a case screw and I am unable to find a replacement locally. Does someone know what the size/thread of the Torx screws used to hold the case tight are?
Thanks!
I looked on your site first but you didn't have it as a standard product... They are so small you'd think that people would be loosing them all of the time. It seemed to have a bit more rattle when the screw was missing so that's why I wanted to have all of them in place. The fan replacement I got took care of most of the rattle. though. Thanks for the offer - it is greatly appreciated that you'd go the extra mile for this sort of thing.
I DID manage to find what seems to be a replacement, however. Took visiting several hardware stores and I finally managed to get a match at Menard's (a MN USA based hardware store chain). It is a 3MM x 6MM machine screw. It is a "Handi-Pack" in their "micro-screw" section. It has a Philips head instead of a torx one but that wasn't important to me. It is marked with part number 87249 for a 2 pack, stainless steel set. The UPC code is 738287872491. In case anyone else ever needs a close match.
