Anti-swaybar mounting bolt size?

I am trying to re-install the front anti-swaybar onto my car. Unfortunately, I do not have ths stock mounting bolts for the brackets (see pic, this is what I bought)

I have a small box of FC bolts, and none of them seem to be the right thread as they are all just the same size, or too small. I tried a dozen or so, but I didn't want to force them as none seemed to go more than 1/2 a turn with the wrench.

What size is this simple bolt? M10 x 1.0? 1.25?

Help!!

Anyone else have any luck with finding out what bolt size this is? I didn't see it listed in the Master Bolt List. :/

I don't recall what size they were. It's a "typical" FC bolt. My problem was the holes must have been exposed for so long, they gunked up and no bolt was working. So I re-threaded/cleaned it with a tap, and the bolts went right in.
