What do you do when missing screws?

Obviously you are someone that has failed to explore all the little drawers of fasteners and cool things at your local hardware store.

Where do you think these reproduction companies get most of their fasteners? They sure don't make them. The source most of the screws, nuts and bolts from already existing and available product lines.

Errrrr......why do you say that? I just said it bugs me to see incorrect screws used. I get most all my screws from my own private "stash" because I rarely have thrown the factory screws away on all my old parts cars. I also used to snag loads of factory screws from A bodies I saw in the boneyard, so I pretty much have a lot of them memorized as to identification.

Those dash screws and grille screws are the ones that I find most valuable. As was mentioned, it has never been easier to find them than nowadays. I think the OP was missing his, so proper identification was the problem, not the sourcing of them.
