your door is the same as my 405 i believe, if i understand correctly are you talking about the nylon screws and nuts? these are available in ace hardware, lowes etc. or replace them with stainless ones. please correct me if this isnt what your looking for

Yes, replace them with stainless machine screws and stainless nylon locking nuts. add stainless washers on the back side.
I believe they are 10/32

On the same door, anyone know what type of latch is used to secure it closed? Mine is missing altogether. Thanks.

Doing many small piddly projects to get her ready for the season.

The oem had a spring that would pop straight when the door is opened and hold it. On mine it works ok and bends in the middle when closing the door. Not really needing a latch .
But you could mount a magnet type latch to hold it closed if you need. A roller ball type like the others in the cabinet doors inside the boat even. Or like this would work..https://www.defender.com/product3.jsp?p ... &id=106118
