    I dropped a screw when fiddling with engine of motor and can no longer find it.

    What I would like to know is where in Dublin can I walk into a store with a screw and easily find one exactly like it.

    I would not imagine Atlantic Homecare or somewhere like this would have most screws in stock.(could be wrong)

    Thanks in advance!

    it's basically the screw for a motorbike battery. I don't think I'll need to ring any autoparts place, although thanks for the response.

    I remember when younger being able to walk into the local diy store with a screw and being able to buy whatever amount of them you needed.

    I don't know where in Dublin is handy for this, if anywhere.

    There is a guy up near the KCR who is a bit like that. It is on the right hand side when you head from the KCR down to Sundrive. Big HARDWARE sign above the shop.

    If the screw is for the battery terminal any place that fixes bikes or sell bike parts should have them,their generic,most batteries are the same.
