License Plate Screws

Hello!

I am looking into replacing the license plate screws. The dealership used screws that will eventually rust. I'm looking for preferably black ones. What size should I be looking for? Do these screws have a certain name? Where can I find them?

Thank you!

I would go to your local hardware or marine store and pick up 4 stainless steel screws (that match the thread, width, and length of the screws from the dealer) as well as finish washers for each.

Plasti dip or paint the screw heads and washers black if you want.

I replaced mine right away since the ones from the dealer rusted within a month here in FL. A quick trip to Waste Marine did the trick for less than 3$.
