1948 22nd Series Sedan Door striker plates and screws

Hi Everybody
Back again with some more little troubles.
Having fixed the door striker plates some time back it was very disappointing to see RUST spreading from the screws when I visited her today at the restorers.
The screws go into a captive nut so the thread on any new screws must mate up, trouble is no one over here in the UK seems to know what the thread is - can anyone tell me then I might be able to replace them with galvanised or better still stainless screws ?
By the way is a special washer behind the head ? it seems to be shaped to the U/S of the head.
Maybe someone knows of a supplier of these in the U.S ?
Best regards Michael
