Default Door actuator question

Short story: anyone know the part number for the door actuator screws?


Long story:
So I'm trying to replace my drivers door actuator, finally figured out it was broken. There appears to be two screws holding it in place. I tried, unsuccessfully , to remove them. After researching, I realized I needed a JIS screwdriver and I'm hoping I didn't strip them. So while I'm waiting for the screwdrivers to come in I want to order the screws in case I need them . But I can't figure out what part number they are. Can anyone help me out? I found on diagram and the showed a hex head screw, which they are not. Appreciate any help. The screws I think I need are circled in red.

It's the correct part, they have the wrong image

You see this a lot. Wrong image. Not just Honda, but literally every place that sells any kind of parts for any kind of thing.

I can imagine several reasons this happens.

The people building the websites don't know the parts or the products. Easy to mix up one pic for another.

Sometimes there literally isn't a pic, but their corp rules require always have one. So they just find something close.

Sometimes the technical people use a placeholder pic, planning to get correct one later. Later never happens.

Probably many other reasons too.

So I finally got the old actuator out. I didn't realize the "phillips" head screws are actually JIS screws and the bits are slightly different. So after almost rounding out the screw heads, I finally got the actuator out and realized the little white tab thats supposed to go in the actuator is broken. I can't find just that part but I can find the whole ensemble which is part 72150-S2A-A01, but everywhere I've looked that is discontinued. So am I screwed at this point and the doors just won't unlock with remote and only the key? If anyone has a remedy I'd truly appreciate any help.

I’ve looked everywhere for used. I’m coming up empty. I can find the passenger side on eBay and from “scrap” yards but no drivers side. Not the end of the world if it doesn’t work just frustrating. I’ll keep searching
