4/40 flat machine screws, brass if you want total accuracy. Many troopers use outlet screws as they come prepainted and are easier to find.

Thanks for the reply! is the "4" the head size? also, do i screw the heads all the way in or do i leave a gap?

You'll need to slightly countersink holes into the ears, so the screw heads sit reasonably flush.

 

Machine screws can either be M3.5 or M4 thread, and will have a head of 6mm.

 

HTH.
