Default Instrument mounting hardware

I have one traditional instrument which is a G-meter. It did not some with any hardware to mount it to the panel and not directions. Is there special hardware for typical 2 1/4 instruments. I see others have panels with black screws or bolts, but I can't seem to find information when I search for "instrument mounting hardware". Is there a good source for this hardware? Thanks for the help.

Default Spruce has em

The black ones are actually brass that's been painted or coated black. The brass is to avoid making the compass go nutty. They also have these little clip-on nuts http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalo...tmountnuts.php
that attach to the ears of the instrument.

Default Never mind

I found what I was looking for, search on Spruce for "black screw" led me to the right info.

Cheers
