Generic #8 Screw Kit 111-Piece Chrome/Black/SS — Interior, Exterior & Engine-Bay Fasteners

Complete 111-piece #8 screw kit designed to replace interior, exterior, trim and engine-bay fasteners on classic and modern GM vehicles.

This bulk replacement kit from Generic gathers the most commonly needed #8 screws used across Chevrolet, Buick, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Cadillac and GMC trucks. Instead of buying many individual fasteners, the kit supplies seven hand-selected screw types in chrome, black phosphate and polished stainless finishes so you can restore trim, panels and engine bay fittings with matching heads and lengths.

Which vehicle areas and fastener types does this kit cover?

The kit targets interior trim, exterior brightwork, engine-bay components and general body panels found on A–Y GM body styles. It includes a mix of Phillips, Torx and indented hex head screws to match factory appearance and practical fit.

• 25 x #8 3/4" indented hex with loose washer (black phosphate)
• 25 x #8 1/2" Phillips (chrome)
• 12 x #8 assorted 1/2" Phillips (chrome and black phosphate)
• 12 x #8 1/2" Phillips pan head (black phosphate)
• 4 + 8 x #8 Torx pan heads at 1-1/8" and 3/4" (polished stainless)
• 8 x #8 3/4" Phillips oval head (chrome)

How will these screws match originals and improve reassembly?

The kit was selected to replicate common factory head styles, diameters and finishes, so replacement fasteners blend visually and functionally with original parts. Using similar head types prevents over-tightening and reduces the need for modifying panels or clips.

• Head diameters sized to sit flush with trim and bezels
• Finishes chosen for visible areas (chrome, polished stainless)
• Black phosphate for concealed or engine-bay applications
• Washer-equipped hex screws where original assemblies used loose washers

Which sizes and finishes are included, and why those counts?

The 111 pieces concentrate on the most frequently lost or damaged fasteners for GM projects — a cost-effective balance of common lengths and finishes. Higher counts are provided for 1/2" and 3/4" lengths because those sizes are used most often in trim and panel work.

• 25 pieces of #8 3/4" hex-with-washer (common for trim mounts)
• 25 pieces of #8 1/2" Phillips in chrome for visible trim
• 16 pieces black phosphate #8 1/2" for hidden mounts
• 12 Torx and longer lengths for deeper panel attachments

What tools and handling tips ensure a proper repair?

Use the matching driver for each head style—Phillips bits for Phillips, Torx bits for Torx, and the correct indented hex driver—to avoid cam-out. Tighten screws to snug only; many trim parts rely on clip tension rather than high torque.

• Carry Phillips #2 and Torx T20/T25 bits for this set
• Use a magnetic bit holder to keep small screws secure
• Protect chrome heads during installation with a bit of tape
• Replace corroded mating clips or nuts when reusing screws

Who this is for: This 111-piece Generic screw kit suits restoration hobbyists, trim and body shop technicians, and DIY owners of GM cars and trucks who need an economical, ready-to-use selection of #8 fasteners. It’s ideal when you’re restoring door panels, installing engine bay covers, replacing exterior trim, or restocking a toolbox for ongoing maintenance on Chevrolet, Buick, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Cadillac and GMC vehicles across A to Y body styles.
