Dont worry about finding coarse thread replacement screws, get M4x18 bugle head machine screws.
Replace all 8 of the coarse thread screws, the machine screws will hold much better.

As a matter of fact you will probably end up replacing all the coarse thread screws on the buggy at some point...and you will be glad you did.
Bugle head?These are the same as flat head=cone head=countersunk,right?
I think i'll just order all machine screws and finish it here,but i sure need some pushing,don't want to ruin the plastic threads...h...e...l...p...!![]
