Can someone confirm for me that the large Phillips head screws that mount
the windshield stanchions to the scuttle are size No. 4?  I have not had
the windshield off of my Bugeye in 20 years.  I need to change the rubber
seal under the foot of the stanchion.  It's all rotted and cracked.  I had
a Phillips socket driver from Snap-On that fit the large screws perfectly,
but I can not find it.  I bought a #4 bit made by some offshore company
called Dynamic on Amazon, but it just looks too small.  While it does fit
the screw, the four blades are very narrow.  Last thing I want to do is
strip out an original screw of this size.
