As I recall, it's a common size... M10 I think... whatever the normal pitch is there I think..

Sorry I can't be more exact Maybe someone else will be able to confirm that.

Get factory parts. These are not the kind of fasteners that you just go and replace with hardware store parts.

Why not? You can get grade 8 standard bolts or the equivelant in metric.( Factory is 8.8 metric i believe.) And they are just as strong as factory. That said most auto parts stores do not have a wide selection of metric fasteners. So i reccomend calling Ray @ Malloy 1-888-533-3400.

But you can replace them from the hardware store with the correct grade.

Clutch related bolts are often not standard 8.8. They often have odd tempers/composition/hardness/heat treating/etc. Since most of the factory bolts are not marked, I always recommend using factory bolts here. Elsewhere, sure, knock yourself out. I've personally run up quite a bill at boltdepot.com
