The screws are not listed in the parts cat. for LR, however the part Nº for the covers is, it's EZU000010PVA. I think the screws are any suitable self tapper.

I also need the four screws but I also need the spring clips behind. The screws seem to be quite a special shape... long, counter sunk but with a bit of a domed head. And they're black!
I'd love to get the correct screws as I have some generic self-tappers and it doesn't look right!

Hi Martin, first, thanks for the great resource that disco3.co.uk is! It's really appreciated
Next... do you have the p/n for the spring clip that these screws fit into?
Hi fishingmad, on my tailgate, there's a big square hole and a kind of spring clip that the screw goes into. I guess it gives some leeway in positioning the bits...
Cheers, Tony

Got it, I think these are what are needed although not sure of the size.

It is a spire nut (U nut) but not available as a separate part from the lower tailgate top trim
I've got a couple of spares from an old trim, and they look similar to standard spire nuts but have teeth cut in to grip the plastic trim.
But I'm sure the standard clips could be used, perhaps with a blob of hot melt glue to stop them sliding off (which is all the teeth are there for).
The clip is 11mm wide x 17mm long and from the diameter of the hole it seems they are #6 (No. 6) sized.

Finally managed to get all the parts needed and replaced the missing screw, covering cap and spire nut
I have some left so if anyone needs any of the parts to replace a lost tailgate screw, PM me and I will post you them (they may take a few days to arrive as I live in Spain).Club Narpy Torch
