Did you find out the size?

No i sent the joy cons to Nintendo to repair an unrelated issue on warranty, they ended up also replacing the screws as well.

Is that the tri-wing in step #5 of this guide? Do you still have the screw?

UPDATE

You can use a digital clap to measure it or just drop by some old repair guy, show him the screw and ask. He might charge you $5.

Better yet, send a good looking girl friend to the old guy, he'll bend over backwards to help her. Old techs are lonely and don't get to see or smell many young girls.
