Your exactly right. The head is taller. This is definiteley not a screw made today BUT my intentions was to see if this may have been used in other applications for different years or models. Screw is not really necessary and alot of the woodies I see dont even have them. Was prob used for less stress on the 2 wood screws in door when pulling handle. I had mine plated and they lost one. Sooooo, am just trying to find one if its out there. If not,Ill use something else,pretty simple actually. Thanks for your input
