Anyone know what the screws look like for this wood grain? I can’t find a reference

Some pix of a 1970 GTX wood grain dash.

The chrome screws appear to be on the lower extensions. They are flat head screws.
 
the ones I posted the link to I was thinking worked for the cluster but I’m not sure about the rest of that trim on a 70’ but I think they would be black countersunk oval head phillips.

On a 68-69 the woodgrain is held on with .( best i can remember is ) I believe was a #8 washer head screw . approx 1/2" in length. then the screw is covered with a piece of stainless trim across the dash

1970 the woodgrain has an open hole and held with a phillister head screw thats visible / in a depressed hole in the woodgrain panel
 
1970 rally dash wood grain is not held on with screws, it is held on with tabs through the faceplates and then bent over. Completely different than a 68-69 standard dash, which is what is in question in the first post.

The point I was trying to make is one can not use the screws from a 1970 model on a 68 - 69 dash woodgrain which is whats posted in the op

I agree with you. The 70 wood grain mounts to the plastic face, the plastic face screws the the housing from behind, then the whole cluster mounts to the dash with screws that pass through the fascia and retain the cluster housing to the dash.

more an answer 440 Phix and beekeeper were using 1970 as an example, but it’s not the same.
