Proper screw size for rear inner panel brackets

Not sure what screw size or length to use on a rear panel bracket into the inner bed? Also the screws that fasten the Panel to frame? Are they the same screws they use for the door panels?? Help please.

Thanks.

Cliff

They are self-tapping metal screws about 5/8" or so long. Can't remember the size.

This is the screw holding the bracket to the inner bedside. I'll try to find the panel screw when I get home

Trim screw and washer/rivet? Just looked at my old panels. Looks like that retainer is riveted or pressed in
