I would like to consider the CAM LOCK 4000 series (stainless with
phillips head)
Is there an STC for this modification for a C-175A?

Skybolt Fasteners http://www.skybolt.com/ has kits for many
but I can't see the 175 there. Might be worth calling them. Does your
airplane have the Southco quarter-turn fasteners now? If so, stick
with them. The Skybolts aren't much better.
