Are the 4 oval head mounting screws for the 1924 ignition switch nickel or black?

When I was cleaning up and restoring my 24 Coupe several years ago I was surprised to find the interior screws for the window trim and around the windshield were nickel plated oval head screws. I thought they were plain black screws but were nickel plated. Over time they were tarnished and dirty. I bought a interior trim nickel screw set for it and found out most of the screws in the interior were nickel plated. I can’t remember for sure if the ignition switch screws were oval nickel screws were but all the rest were. I will look tomorrow. Sorry I can’t exactly answer your question now.

From the factory, I believe they were Raven finished. I used stainless in mine which is incorrect, but they look nice.
