Lost my hardware

Hey all I finally got the time to install my JVC 860 and discover that I don’t have the hardware or the remote control.
Can anyone tell me what the actual screw size is and how I can get more? Also, any thoughts on how I can get a new remote. I'm told that with the 860 you cannot switch thru the presets w/o the remote so it sucks even more.

i got a 960 on my board and you can switch through the presets with out a remote. youll probaly have to call up jvc and get a new one. and what screws are you talking about?

I need the mounting screws on the sides that I attach the brackets on. it looks like it might have taken up to 5 on each side

It usually has a number stamped/casted in the material.
Its metric for SURE. Take the deck to a place that has bulk metric screws and start testing them out.
4,5 or 6 mm x 1.0mm pitch ...
Probably 5 or 6 out of the three. Length varies... Be careful on the length. No more thans needed...

remember a screws threads are only as good as 3 times its diameter. so on 1/4-20 screw only .75 of the threads actually hold.

Yah I found the size stamped on it. Never thought to look for that. M5x8 it said. Now im stuck looking for a wire harness. the one I got at automaster was for 2000- 2004 and I figured they wouldnt change it in 05. huh wrong.
