I'm not very good at identifying sizes of bolts or screws. I'm getting some trendy black sockets but the fixing bolts don't appear to be of the same colour. Can anyone tell me the size of these bolts so I can do a search for some black ones. Or even better, tell me where to get them.
Thanks
They are M3.5's and I'm afraid I've never seen them in anything other than chrome or brass...
...I guess a can of black car paint would do?

Blacken the screw heads with an indelible black felt tip pen. Regards Mike.
I used to work for a network equipment manufacturer that used to do just that on its chassis screws. It works very well.

Unlike black paint, it doesn't lock the screws. Regards Mike.
