Default Size/Length/Pitch of Fuse Box to Firewall Screws

Fellas -

Trying to install my new engine harness, but can't get the sucker plugged in because my fuse box isn't connected to the firewall. Looks like two screws attach it to the firewall. The plastic portion is 1.79" long, so I'm guessing the screws should be 2 1/8" or so.

Anyone know what size/length/pitch these are?

Thanks,

Scott

10-16 x 2-1/4" long. They use a 5/16 socket to install.

They appear to be regular coarse sheet metal type screws BUT the originals had a HEAVY coating of wax sealer that completely encased the coarse threads.

AMK Products sells them but you typically need to make a $30 minimum order and they show these for $3/pair. Their PN is B-11093. Theirs have the heavy wax coating on the threads as well.

Thanks Patton. That's the info that I was looking for.
