My suggestion is th go to the Bud;s Benz website, scroll to the very bottom then e-mail Dave and ask him, include your photo.

Good Luck,

#4 X 3/8" for anyone in the US.  2.9mm is .114 inches which happens to be the size of a #4 screw.

I went to a boating supply operation and picked up a couple of handfuls of stainless steel screws for not much money. They worked nicely.
