metric screws for TP 50 head Thorens TD 150

I have a new Thorens TP 50 head that fits on the TP 13 arm. I have never used it because when I purchased it from Thorens, they were not able to supply the proper length screws to mount my cartridge.

At any rate, I'm having problems with a audible hum that grows louder with use in any session and I can't seem to fix it with various grounding options. My 35 year old TP 50 head has a crack in the plastic inslulation and I'd really like to replace it with my new one.

Does anyone know of a supplier for small metric screws that might fit.

Anyone have experience with this TT and have any other suggestions? Thanks a bunch.

McMaster-Carr has many metric screws. You didn't say the type head you need. Here is the metric screw page:
