Does anybody know the size of screws I need to order to fit the binnacle to the captive nuts on the bulkhead of a mk1?

Hope that makes sense and thank you for your help.

The bottom screws are longer than the top ones - usually. Depending on the model you have there is normally a clip on the bottom screws for the screen washer tubes and oil pressure gauge.

Aren't 10-32 and 3/16 the same thing?

Incredibly similar - but 10-32 is very slightly larger.

They tend to be seen as pretty much interchangeable.

If you look at Moss's online catalogue, you can find the part numbers and get the specs from the list at the back.
