Git your genui-wine Spectrum 48K screws here!
Actually, not here. And they're not genuine, but they fit like a charm.
A seller on Ebay (of course) called rcmods sells Radio Controlled car parts, including 2.6x10 self-tapping screws, in black, which is almost exactly what our rubber key chum uses. The lot number is 300435148980. They're not cheap - ?2 in fact, in packs of 6, but ?2 to fully screw back a Speccy is worth it.
He also sells cheaper 3x10 screws which also fit but are slightly too big and fit flush against the back of the Speccy. They still work, but not quite as well.
There will be other places to get them, of course, but I can testify that these look and feel just like the originals.
Next step is to find replacement +/128 screws!

Got stuff from him many times, very satisfied.
I looked there and I only saw screws for a +/128...?
the 2 on side that go into FDD are no problem.
OOps sorry, you're right... just for the + models....
