THREAD NECROMANCY!
How long did it take for you uk dudes to get the cab? I'm leaving for uni tomorrow and I need to give me parents some idea of when to expect a large box in the post.

Good news Zaphod!
I am pretty sure the screws I got were 5/16" x 2". You definitely need 2" length. I took one of the screws from the TT to B&Q and compared, but I think that's what you need - at least that's what I wrote earlier in the thread!
If I had any left I'd send them to you!
You should drill the holes in the head case out to 6mm as is good to have the leeway to align them right.

I'm glad it finally made it. I was getting worried it was snagged by someone on the way.
