just changing my Elan Sprints window motor and screws from mounting plate to frame are in poor condition.

Screws are 1/4" UNF x 1/2" long.

If you use WIKI (at the top of the page) you can access the parts drawings. Also look at Intro - Standard Hardware, it shows you how to decipher the Lotus part numbering.

Cap Head bolt & a long Allen Key does the job nicely.
