    Just remove the WiFi screw from your Studio 17; it will be the same type of screw. Or, maybe you'll luck out and your Bluetooth card will ship with the correct screw, although I wouldn't count on it.

    In that case, just compare the WiFi card screw and see if there are any screws from that Apple that match.

    If not, I believe there are a couple of matching screws from the Studio 17's palmrest, if you think you can live with a missing screw inside. Keep in mind that the palmrest is secured by 6 or 7 other screws anyway.
