Tommy,
I highly recommend that you get the proper screws from Elecraft to be
certain they are the correct length.
Hardware store screw are normally not available in black, so why mess up
the appearance of your KX2 with zinc plated screws.

Make a bad purchase good?
Bought a KX-2 off the internet and have found that it is missing several of the
screws that held the end plates on. Asked about that and the seller said he
tried to put some sort of protective end plates onto the radio but couldn’t do
it so threw them away and put the original end plates back on. What concerns
me about just going to the hardware store and getting more screws (that might
not be the proper thread/length) is I think two of the screws held the final
output transistors onto that end plate which I assume was for that end plate to
act as a heatsink.
