License Plate Screw Size for Euro Trunklid Insert
i just tried to install euro plate onto my euro trunklid insert
the screws that were on US trunklid insert does not fit...
it goes in a little bit then stops...
not sure if it's cuz the paint might've got inside and i should just keep forcing it in or if euro trunklid insert uses different screw size...
any ideas?

Same screws
It sounds like its loaded up with paint from the Body Shop
I Have several screws (Phillip Head) so When You stop over for the MBENZNL Work I can give you a couple ..But they are the same 5mm 1.25 thread pitch phillip head screws

update: i think i have the right screws as 1 of 4 went in fine...
like mark mentioned, i think there's extra paint in the other 3 holes..
what's the best way? just keep forcing it in?
