Screw set for Mi9 Transparent Edition

My battery unfortunately has expanded enough that it popped the back cover off. I saw the wonderful tutorial here and ordered all the parts listed. Unfortunately when I went to disassemble, the transparent edition I have isn’t phillips #00 screws like in the tutorial.

I need to know what I should order to get these screws out and optimally, what screws I should order to replace them with as most of the heads don’t look nearly as good as that photo(whomever put the phone together apparently had a heavy hand).

I ended up getting a 0.8mm star bit from Amazon and reused the screws. It’s the P2 Pentalobe in the iFixIt store.
