Lower Door to Hinge Bolt Sizing?

Hey bought a 1989 RX7 as a project car and it is missing the lower door to hinge bolt on the drivers side. I tried to order some from a couple sites, but they seemed to have discontinued the bolt. I would rather not take out a bolt from the passenger door and try to get it matched. Does anyone know the bolt thread and length for the door to hinge bolt?

if you can live with gold zinc plating instead of the gray cadmium, try 9078-32-820, Mazda has plenty

it should be a 8x1.25x20mm bolt. its used on basically every period Mazda too, so junkyard is an option. Mazda painted these cars with the body assembled, minus doors (doors are right next to the car when its painted), and that lets them put the interior in, and then put the doors on
