I purchased Hogue grip screws for a Sig P230.

You will have to tap out the threads for the grips larger. (not sure what the size was but i can look tonight if you like).
I then also had to us a washer (5mil) to fill space as the screw is not threaded all the way to the head. That actually was a good thing as it created a better surface to hold the grip in.
They stand just a hair proud of the grips but not enough to notice when in your hand or drawing the gun.
Just be very careful when doing the retap. The aluminum can break and then your done for. Just take your time.
The main reason i changed mine our is that one of the original screws had stripped so i had to do something. I didn't have much to loose so i tried this.
It did turn out nice and the silver looks good. The allen head screw is a nice thing as well.
Good Luck.

Both of you did an excellent job.
