center console mounting hardware.

ok so I've searched and cant seem to find the answer, my center console is missing the 2 screws (bolts, nails whatever is supposed to be there) that hold the center console down on the INSIDE of the compartment (glove box or whatever you want to call it). they have been missing since day 1 so I don't know if they are hexhead, Phillips, long short, course thread fine thread anything... and I really don't want to remove the center console to look at the threaded holes to find out. so... any ideas?

Re: center console mounting hardware.

Same kind that hold the auto shifter in place. There's another in the middle of the center console. They're also used under the car to hold brake/fuel lines to the frame.Plenty other areas around the vehicle too.
