I'm just doing a repair at the moment - I used the GBS screws when I first built the screen and they were fine. I recall them being almost triangular and I assumed s/steel. 

Will rivets work if you're not going all the way through the frame? 

don't know mine has a small gap between the edge of screen and frame 

i used pop rivets on mine as had the same problem as you with s/tapping  screws' 

hi have just comeback from 4days holiday to South Yorkshire and noticed that i have have  pinking on acceleration eg up hills the timing was checked late last year do think it is the std petrol would running super be better or add a octane booster in with the fuel be better ?

Responding to Shaun in the wanted ads, I dug out some hoods that I had acquired at some stage.  The question, is what are they from?  Did they ever come pre-fitted with fasteners at some stage? They are better quality than the ones from my old S7 which were supplied unadulterated, but I have no real idea what they would fit.
 

would you be interested in sell the hood ?

have you checked the earth lead has a clean connection & check the  volt reading on new battery if all ok you could have a faulty new starter 

yes we would like to go on the sunday

insert two flat blade screwdrivers and then use a bar between the 2 screwdrivers to undo the bolt
