Vert guys, best place to buy the top bolts?

The bolts with the metal nipples on it so that the boot can snap on to them.

Mazda wants like $8 each, even with my Ray Crowe discount. ouch!

Black Dragon auto may have them in their catalog. 8$ each ain't too bad if your just in need of 1 or 2. You looking to replace all of them?

Interested too. Mine were pretty rusty and I'd like to just replace the entire set. 8 bucks a pop though and I might just wait.

The four (2 on each side) at the drain pockets are even more expensive. They're a nut bolt combo.

When I looked into buying them Mazda wanted $12 each, which makes your price look like a deal. LOL!

I thought one solution might be to wire brush them with a dremel and then spray them with one of the rust sealer products that turns rust into a hard black coat. Have not try it yet, but I don't see why it would not work.
