Stainless steel...the best peace of mind
You mean vertical!
Controversial!
horizontal
There are nutserts / rivnuts in the tailgate / barn door to take a plastic M6 number plate bolt.
You can use stainless but use a bit of grease - dissimilar metals can corrode (stainless in zinc plate steel)

It doesnt apply to plastic, but I was taught vertical to allow water to run out and thus reduce corrosion.
I was joking I'm old enough to remember slotted wood screws all being in the same direction
If it's a black screw in a digit, the slot has to follow the orientation of the line of the digit it goes through. That obviously dictates the orientation of the other screw.
If they are both yellow, then horizontal to match the portrait orientation of the numberplate.

Mine have caps on the screws so my screw orientation is hidden is it a MOT failiure if this is wrong, plus one screw cap is blue old EU style plate should I get new plates
I am generally the same until the weather gets too hot and the glue meltsdouble sided tape here, much tidier
I had one come off the car last year and the van this year
