Mike,
All too common. Stock size for those little plates is
1/4" x 24tpi (fine pitch). Yes, ALMOST the size of
6mm x 1.00.
If the bolt head was 10mm (3/8") someone got metric bolts
in there. If it was 11mm (really 7/16") it was the OEM
1/4".
Seems on quite a few cars I have seen longer bolts and nuts
(a pain in the rear -- PITA) as it is hard to reach the nuts.
Just one of those things. ;-(
