Default Top clip missing a screw

Need help finding a part number for a screw I am missing on the soft top clip for a 2000 S2000. The screw is on the inside of the cip, there are 2 very small screws that hold together the button to release the clip.

Here is a crappy cell phone pic:



I have tried looking on the parts diagrams but having trouble even finding anything on the clips:

Go to your local Honda dealership (or junkyard). You'll pay more for shipping ordering online than the screw costs retail.

Or pull the opposite side screw and go to your local Ace Hardware and have them match the pitch and thread.

Yes I was just going to get it from my local dealership, was just hoping to get the part number so I can have them order it and only have to make one trip to pick it up.

Honda does not sell parts for the latches. They sell the complete latch.

Kinda funny, my exact same screw fell out. I found it one day and didn't know where it came from. Decided to keep it just in case and I'm glad I did bc about a month later my latch was all loose. Thought to myself "hey, didn't I find something like that!" all is good now. It might be difficult finding the right screw at a big box store, but who knows, maybe. Good luck with the hunt.

Those definitely come loose. I've found them ready to fall out on a few occasions!
