I'll be slapping on some new wheels soon. Need to order the screw missing here. Anyone know what it's called or better yet a part number?

You dont need it and it is pointless to have. The rotor is held in place with 5 lug bolts, if those cant hold the rotor on I dont think the dinky little phillips head screw will

Lol have to agree with Joe. It makes putting the wheel back on easier because sometimes the rotor moves and the holes don't line up. That's it.

Yeah, y'all aren't wrong. But the screw is barely a buck and it's a nice QOL thing to not have to realign a rotor.

I am excited about that screw. I'm doing my front brakes sunday, and I've never had a car with a rotor screw. No more fumbling around!

Appreciate it

I had the hatch open, and noticed the holes in my tail lights. Are there supposed to be screws or anything there? Feel pretty snug.

No screws or bolts. Mine is like that too. All is well, now go for a drive.
