[QUOTE="Ignacio, post: 168562, member: 434"] No. By definition the different material makes them different screws. They may fit dimensionally, but it doesn't much matter compared with the subject of this thread. Being aluminum instead of engineered plastic they aren't going to strip with the same force. They would require much more force to break or strip. Also the nuts are completely different. The stock ones are brass or bronze alloy nuts embedded in a plastic or rubber case that act like grommets against the acrylic windshield. [/QUOTE]
