Scootrs screws

Anyone point me in the right direction for the 2 little black screws that hold down the top of a scootsrs master? The brake had developed a spongy feel and is losing bite. I think it might be a leak and this will mean having to bleed it. as the screws i have are made of cheese i know ill never get them back on. Ideally some high tensile ones would be great as these seem to be a use once and chuck away...... :evil:

the top of a master cylinder needs to be vented in the same way a petrol cap is

I imagine that thes screws are quite easy to get once you know what they are. I had brought some spares before and thought ill put these away safe for when i next need to open up the master...all smugly..

F**k me, can i find em... :twisted: Iv had the garage upside down looking. I cant take the ones out because if i do then ill have no brake until i get the spares....Catch 22 and all that.... :D
