Default License plate bolts

I guess someone tried to steal my tag, or just the frame on it while i was in the mall the other day. Well, they broke the heads off both bolts. I managed to vice grip these turds off, but i've been through 3 different sets of 10mm's and either the threads are wrong, or the bolts are too big? Anyone know exactly what size and thread i need? Thanks in advance.

Car- 99 Civic CX
Problem-Need license plate bolts.

thanks everybody.lluks, give it a few squirts of wd-40, if that doesn't work, just tighten down some vice grips and use some elbow grease.Be gentle though, not to snap the spot welds of the thread holder.

Yes, but the 6mm did NOT work. I'm guessing it's because the threads might have been a bit messed up, because of the theft attempt. I ended up finally just taking a handful out of the hardware store, trying some out, going back in and matching them up.
