    Hello,
    Recently I bought a used ASUS ROG GL702VS, and the previous owner did a horrible job maintaining it. It came with 4 missing chassis crews, the long ones and I want to replace those. I can measure it with calipers for exact dimensions but I am wondering if someone knows where I can find the exact published specs.

    After pulling out several dust bunnies and vacuuming everything and reapplying thermal paste, she runs well but it's just annoying that it's missing screws.

    FYI, It is 16.5mm long and 2.3mm diameter at the thread, 4.2mm at the head. It "should" be a #3 in US unit but I can't find a supplier on ebay.

    It looks like exactly what I am looking for, but I' a bit confused because they are saying M2.5*12L, which is a bit inconsistent with the dimensions I read off of the caliper. Anyways this is why I was hoping to find the info above, otherwise I would have gotten 3-48 x 5/8 screw and would have fit. I will order some M2.5*12L now. Thanks!

    Only 2/10, the hinge screws are M2.5 x 12 L, fortunately I was missing only two screws. They are M2.5 just need to be longer for the other screws.
