Screw won't hold module in front trunk
Just drove my '03 S back from SC. For a 10 year old car it is in excellent shape, other than it needed a good detail. So, I spent the weekend detailing the car and getting to look at everything up close.
One thing I noticed was a screw laying in the front trunk, and discovered it belongs to the computer module in front of the battery compartment. It fits the hole, but it doesn't hold. I looked into the battery compartment, but there is not access to the back of the screw hole. Is there a solution for this?

Just to let you know, that module is the amplifier for the sound system. The screws mate with a nut that is captured in a rubber surround that pushes in to the hole. Often these perish and the nut drops away.
Not sure of the part number, but you could undo the other side and pull it out to take to the Dealer parts counter, or try and explain what you are after and find it on their system. Either way, its a trip to the dealer for the part.
