I recently purchased my first Forester and wanted to start tweaking it from the get go. I got the no frills version so plenty to upgrade. My first en-devour is going to be installing tweeters in the dash since none are installed. I found some stock ones on eBay, but they don't come with the screws. Anyone know what type of screw are needed for this, or where I could get them? Thanks!

I'm not 100% positive but when I popped my tweeter covers on the dash and unscrewed them so I could disconnect them, I seem to remember that the screw was the same as MANY of the screws used to hold the rest of the speakers into the Forester. Subaru seems to love this screw. I don't have them close at hand, but I had to replace a bunch of them in the door speakers with longer ones in order to use an adapter plate to mount my 6.5" component speakers in the doors. The replacement screws I used are Pan Head Phillips screws My replacements were #10's so I imagine that a #10 x 1/2" would probably be about the right size of previously mentioned screws.

You hit it right on the head. I got me some #10 1/2 inch screws and they were perfect. Thanks for the help!

No problem. Glad you got the right size.
