Not for a Zelmot and the Marelli ones are about £20 - £30. I only want the screw

Pull an old video, tumble dryer, washing machine, dvd player, etc.. apart or find a breakers yard/garage with a few old cars laying about, you might be lucky and find a useable screw. My choke outercable retaining screw was a left over from the furniture at the new Marstons in town.

Top advice mate! I tried using the screws which are on the dizzy to see if they'd fit to use as a reference to ordering a new one but no luck :(

ill strip mine down to see to check the size of the screw,
my new points were delivered without the screw, so no point (no pun intended) in buying new ones  ;D

screw size are 3mm x 7mm
screw head is 7mm
phone pictures below may help
