ambient air temp sensor mounting screw

The ambient air temperature sensor for the AC in my 93 is laying behind the front bumper instead of being mounted on same. I have looked at other NSX's and sw Mark Basch. Apparently the screw has a shoulder that fits into the hole in themounting bracket of the bumper and then goes into the threaded portion of the mounting bracket on the sensor.

Does anyone know the part # for this screw and whether it can be obtained without ordering the sensor itself..Basch Acura has not been able to get the correct part in thus far....
********
I sent an email to Niello Acura--their parts catalog is down but maybe they can tell me if the screw is sold separately from the sensor itself...Maybe someone has a spare one sitting around that I could buy (hey no one seems to read the wanted parts forum when they are selling a part)

No, the missing screw would be the one not pictured on the main part of the bracket to the right...The screw comes down thru the bumper support bracket and then enters the sensor bracket in the much larger threaded section in the right area of your diagram. Do you see that threaded hole to the right of "6" in the main portion of the bracket--the screw has about a 3/4 head that goes goes thru the support bracket on the bumper and then goes into the threaded section of the main section of the support bracket diagram--right in the position shown in the diagram....the diagram above simply shows the screw that holds the thermocoupling to the sensor bracket..
 
Yes that is it!

You got it on the last try--Now I just have to order one somewhere or give Basch Acura the part #....If I put something in parts wanted--I doubt I will get any response Thanks for the info--where did you find the info---is it in a parts book of some type?
