Default I think I've got a few screws loose

<center><img src="http://www.wetworksgarage.com/temp/nitrous.JPG"></center><p>I was refilling my windshield washer fluid today and I noticed that the coolant overflow resevoir,
which ought to be held down by three screws, is simply sitting in there loosely. There are no
screws in there at all but there are obviously little brackets with holes to match the tabs on the
resevoir. You can see two of the screws in the pic just to the left of the red and blue coiled wires.
I figure the Audi dealer forgot to put them back on on my last service a few weeks ago.

Since it is a 200-mile round trip to the dealer, can anybody tell me what screws I should get for
this so I can just go to the Home Depot or something and do it myself.
