S.T. Dupont Defi Extreme Screws

[Hypersomniac]

I had to tear down my S.T. Dupont Defi Extreme to perform a bit of maintenance, and a couple of the screws got stripped. Does anybody happen to know what size screws this lighter uses so I can get some replacements?

I've seen repair kits with screws for only a few dollars on eBay , maybe you can compare yours with the photos.  Amazon also has some Dupont repair kits, but I think they are more money & have parts you do not need.

I did a very quick search and everything that I saw was for their Ligne lighters. I will have to take a closer look and see if there are some for the Defi Extreme.

Does anyone know the best way to clean the black flint marks just next to the flame? I've tried wiping it off but it doesn't seem to come off the metal, almost as if it's a stain?

I know the Dupont website has an after sales service section. They do service lighters out of warranty. But even more, there are lists of all service professional by location & emails & phone numbers. You may be able to write in or phone to them for parts or service tips.
