I never thought this day would come, but I am completely out of the small deck screws (both the course thread and the fine thread. Since new radios don't seem to be coming with them anymore, where are you guys getting them?

Alpine and Pioneer still provide them. Alpine has machined and Pioneer has rough cuts.

Hmmm... Alpine is one of the brands I sell and the past 3 radios haven't had any (all were the UTE52BT)

I have the CDE152 in my stock room. I will see if they are in that box. I know they are in the 153BT and 154BT.

I think it's dumb that the radios don't all come with them. Many kits now are ISO mount and require the screws. I'd be happy to even have the option to buy a bunch but I can't find them anywhere.

Metra (Installbay) sells them but they are only the flat heads, not the pan heads. I usually prefer the pan heads...

The Metra iso mount kits are notched so you can use either screw.
