( anyone need a brand new XXX windshield with just a small chip in the corner ) 
?

Ouch.

Found a good source for bolts and screws: https://www.boltdepot.com/

Easy-to-use website, good support--they pulled my order right before 
shipping so I could add some more items--and fast shipping.  Not 
original Posidrive, but you won't find some of the sizes and lengths our 
cars need at the local Lowe's or Home Depot.  I'm using stainless for 
almost all replacements these days.

NFI.

Bob
