Don't seem to be listed on RealOem or Maximillion. Mine are all missing. Anyone have lengths, size and pitch of these? Thanks

I think it's a plain old M4, if you have any bolts test it for that size
I have none but will pull out the Tap and Dye set.
Think they are M5 (corrected following RSPorsche below) with standard pitch. Note that there are two different lengths installed. I have to measure to be sure, but i guess them to stick out about 15 mm and 40 mm from the bezel.
The 2 short ones hold het bezel to the car, the other two hold the bulb holder to the bezel(+car); hence the latter beingg longer.
To be able to use the 4 threads effectively, i'd loctite them in place. Otherwise you might unscrew the threads from the bezel next time you want to lossen the nut to open the cover to replace a burnt out lamp.

the ones in all of my lights are M5 with standard pitch. there are indeed 2 different lengths - the short ones are 17mm and the long ones are 37mm.
i just bought some from mc master carr in stainless ... i bought 20 mm and 40 mm lengths, although i went back and looked they have 16 mm length. you can get 10 of each for about 12 bucks plus delivery.
