What kind of screws in NES console/system

Hello,

I've recently bought a french NES, and the guy who sold it to me opened and unscrew the console (he thought the console was broken, but he was mistaken, because I fixed it), and then he sold it to me without the 6 box screws.

Is anyone can tell me what kind of screws could be available to replace it ?

Regards.

My US front-loader NES uses 12mm phillips #2 pan-head screws with a pitch of 1mm, a major diameter (outside thread to outside thread) of 3mm, and a minor diameter (inside thread to inside thread) of 2mm... at least, to the precision I can measure (10mil)
