hood bolt size?

Was about to put my hood back on the car, after 3 or 4 years of it being just set on, not bolted, to the car... and realized I dont have the bolts anymore. Anyone know the dimensions of the bolts so i can run to lowes or the depot and get a set?

need dia, thread, length

thanks =)

I know they are 10mm heads but I would say they are probably M6 with fine tread. Sorry no much help.

Take one off your fenders cause they are practically the same I think!

Thank you =)
Figures, the mounting holes in the hood just about rusted over and had one bolt broken off in the whole anyway.. No metric taps to be found, so they're all 5/16" now, heh
