SIM Tray Screw Size

Hello! I had a problem with my iPhone 3GS 16GB yesterday, looks like I broke my sim card holder and the new one didn't fit in quite right .. so I opened it up using the incredible tutorial on this site (thanks). OK, so I opened it up and removed the heart now I saw that the screw broke on the handle of the SIM tray .. not sure how it happened, but it did. Now I managed to remove the screw, but do you know what size the screw is and how many TPI (Threads Per Inch) it has?

We carry the screw set for the 3GS, and that screw is included. I'd give you the size, but that screw has some strange coarse threads and also has an odd unthreaded shoulder.
