I ordered these according to your spec:

They just test-fitted fine. I'll put anti-seize on them when I finally install my new plates.
To remove the old ones I had to soak the right one repeatedly with CRC Freeze-Off for about 5 days:
Since I'm replacing ancient plates I bent the old plate's edge back with a hook to create a little well which I could dump the freeze-off down (put a paper towel behind the plate across the bottom to catch excess). With each application, I would open the door and leave it up so the freeze-off would soak DOWN into the screw. I'd leave it like for a few hours, then do it again, leaving the door open most of the day. I started last Saturday and finally yesterday the screw came loose with minimal effort.
