Default 34 ford for latch and regulator screw sizes

I am trying to buy the correct screws for my door latches and window regulators for a late 34 5 window coupe. I have looked on Mac's website and there is a kit for the interior, but it does not state whether these screws are included. They sell most of the screws by size. Does anyone know the size and lengths I need?
Thanks

They are smaller than 1/4 inch and most hardware stores do not stock the right size.

They are #12-24s & are very hard to find even Fastenal doesen't have them.Ford & Chrysler used them before the war, my 48 Desoto & my 34 Ford pickup has them. If you are not concerned about complete originality in some applications you can use a good quality 1/4-20 tap & very carefully tap to that very common size. I did that quite a few times (use a lubricant with your tap) Wether this will work for you or not I do not know, it worked for me. Good luck.
Gary.

Roy has lots of #12 fasteners, including those that you are seeking.

I think Roy has kits or blister packs that are sorted for specific applications. I have not visited his site for a long time. I think he might be on the Early Ford v8 site. I know he advertises someplace and he always had positive feedback.
You can probably buy individual bolts and nuts or blister packs.
