I can find things a whole lot easier at Ace. Not to mention that the owner lets me use his driveway for his other business to access my backyard so I have a place to park the FW and TV.

If you can not find 3/16 maybe 1/4 will work just as well. When I was working I used 5/16 and 1/4 by the thousands. We got then from all sorts of places.
Not sure who makes your RV but I contacted Forest River and bought a bag of 1000 screws from them for just a few bucks. This is the screw that Forest River use's everywhere inside and outside the RV. I then replaced any screw that was rusty or missing paint etc. I also ordered replacement plastic vent covers from them and bought cargo door holders from eBay and replaced those as well. It really cleaned up the look of my 5th wheel and I think I only spent 20 to 30 bucks for everything.
You might want to contact the maker of your RV and see what they would charge.
