    In my 06 DC Limited all of the sill plates have these empty holes:

    What goes in them, screws, plastic-pin things, lollipops?

    If screws, what size are the screws? If something else, does anyone have a part #/source?

    I've got 14 empty holes to fill.

    This thread could go 1 of 2 ways if you just read the title. Sorry, I work from home and get bored in between jobs.

    I think when the Sequoia seats went in the carpet got pulled to run the wiring. And whoever did that forgot to put back the 14 screws.

    Anyone have an ideas as to the correct screw size and head type?

    This time was to run my XM antenna.

    For the edification of future readers of this thread, the Toyota part # is 90164-50049 (edited), which are $1.35 each at my local Toyota dealer.
    I got size 12 - 1 1/4" stainless screws at my local hardware store for $.43 each. The threading on the size 12 screws is a bit coarser than the Toyota screws, but they worked just fine.

    Now I don't have to worry about my scuff plates falling out.

    (edited to fix part number that was missing a digit)

    FWIW, it looks like Toyota adds another digit on the end of the part number to differentiate between screws. The "Sill Plate" screw is 90164-50046, it's around a buck if you buy online through your local dealer's parts page for local pickup, if they participate. Sadly I couldn't find anywhere with picture details about thread pitch/length/diameter.

    That's one of those things I'll normally just hit the junkyard for and pocket while strolling through. The guys up front waved me through the first several times I showed I had screws in-hand, so I assume it's just expected. Gotta pay a nominal fee to get into the yard, I guess they consider it even-steven?
