License tag screw question

Hi guys

I got this couple weeks ago and it's too big for the RL and I don't want to use force to make it fit. Does anyone know what size screw the RL has. Maybe I can get the replacement at Homedepot.

Thanks guys.

what he said. drive to home depot. take one out. take it to the screw section in "hardware" and you can find the thread pitch.

It's for the back. I need a titanium hex socket countersunk in 10mm.

My problem is the bolt is too big for the back so I need a smaller one.

Maybe oil up the bolt or clean the thread on the bolt. My fit perfectly.
