Question What is the bulb wattage for number plate light?

My owners manual says its 5w, but I have read elsewhere that its 3.8w. Also, any idea what size the screws are holding the lens on? I had to drill them out because they were rusted solid.

The bulb is definitely a 5W, I think it's a W5W aka 501, isn't it?

As for the screws, they rust to hell and back. Mine are the same.

Can you get some stainless self-tappers to replace them?
