2000 C280 rear license plate screws.
Hello everybody.
Does anyone know the actual measurements of the screws MB uses on the rear license plate screw holes? As every screw I've tried was too short. I'm looking to get my father's C280 back on the road after sitting for a while (Was in limp home mode and we've recently repaired and re-registered it and got plates for it.) and the only thing stopping me from hitting the road is those pesky screws. it seems like that's the only thing they didn't bother thinking about...

I am unsure of the measurements but if you are replacing the bulbs, this can be done without the removal of the plastic covers externally, just pull the carpet trim behind the plate from the inside, and you get direct access.
