I don't need six of them, so I might just get the socket set out and undo the vibrato arm post so I can take that to the hardware store, rather than lugging the whole guitar in.

The ones I got were 5mm long, cos that's the shortest they had in stainless steel, but I think the originals were 3 or 4mm long. Got a couple of spares just in case, too
Unless you're in a hurry, though, I reckon it works out better to get 'em from G&L. Mine were $1 each, which certainly won't break the bank, but for $6 (plus postage) from the online store you get 6 screws and bushings as well (which they definitely don't have at the hardware shop).
All's well that ends well, then!
