They look like #10 self-tapping and I'm pretty sure they screw into those small, square, plastic nut plates that snap into the fender lip.

Ok... I think I'm with you now...

This is what you have:



If that's correct, then I think that this is what you need (unless the studs are broken off):

If the studs are broken off, then you need the screws that I posted above to screw into those plastic bosses where the studs were mounted.
