Brass Screws in the Trunk?

Question:
Opened up the trunk the other day and found a phillips head screw lying on the floor.
Opened up trunk yesterday and found another one.
What's falling apart now?
Anyone else have this or found screws in the trunk?
Thanks

I once took the trunk area apart to locate the rattle. There is no naked metal screws in the trunk area except one that holds the plastic piece where you put your hand to close the trunk lid. Other than that, only plastic clips should be in there to hold all the form/plastic covers. There are over 20 of them in the trunk.

I doubt they are brass - many quality Honda fasteners are zinc dichromate, which has a golden/rainbow color to it. One sometimes finds extra screws from assembly - assembler dropped one and picked up another. Not sure what your issue is - if nothing is falling down, why worry about it? Plenty of other things in this world to worry about.
