Without going down there and searching all around who knows off hand where one may look for the following (vehicle type and on what part of the car) -

Im thinking like early 90s hatch backs and stuff would have the phillips style in the back/trunk holding plastics on. Not sure I'd find any allen style though.

I also need flange heads, but they are easier to find usually

I need to gather up quite a few of each. for a little project and oem always look better then the general junk you get at a hardware store.

The first two are most likely from interiors. Parts that are attached to the dash, such as gauge clusters, temperature controls, center consoles, etc. This is on mostly Japanese cars. Check European cars for allen key bolts, that's where I've seen them most.

Flange head bolts is pretty much anything under the hood, body panels and some larger interior pieces. Not sure how big you need them, but side view mirrors should be attached with them.

I may have a good handful of the first phillips head type as well as the flanged hex head bolts which may or may not have some holes in the head or ends which are because they're lockwire or cotterpin lockable, all parts were for use within aviation.

I can check when I get home, it was unidentifiable stock in the sense that they had no batch number stickers on them, therefore we had to throw them out, I took a whole bunch of stuff home.

A side note, the 10mm flanged hex head bolts are extensively used in Hondas/Acuras, within the engine, exterior and interior pieces. They love their 10mm at Honda.

Flanged head bolts are also very common on V8s with aluminum intakes, my Jeep's V8 intake is held on with something like 18 flange bolts.

The first Phillips screws look like the kind I pull out of 90s Subaru interiors with alarming regularity (coated black usually). Subarus, like Honda, love their 10mm hex bolts.

Allen head screws I'm not sure - maybe Germans.

Yeah pretty much what I was expecting for answers. Not so much worried about the allen head ones. And I'm mostly looking for smaller stuff, 8,10,12mm heads for the most part. Always nice to have a stash for working on bikes and wheelers too.
