Missing hardware - where to find?

Missing hardware - where to find?

2013-02-16 by Terje Winther

I have a Polysix in for service that is missing a lot of hardware:
- the 4 bottom screws that hold the back end of the front panel are  
missing
- the 4 top screws (two on each side) that holds the front panel in  
place are missing
- a lot of the small black front panel screws that holds the panel  
PCBs in place are missing
- the inside screws (wood screw type) that holds the processor board  
in place are missing
- one of the screws for the pitchwheel/modwheel assembly (from the  
underside) is missing
- one of the rubber feet (including the screw) is missing

The whole thing is barely holding together.
Amazingly enough the look of this P6 is quite good, and all front  
panel elements (buttons, knobs, program caps etc.) are still there.
Technically it is in poor shape, and clearly someone has already tried  
to do "service" - unsuccessfully, and didn´t even bother to assemble  
the synth.

So: where do I start to look for hardware for the Polysix?
