Need help installing a harness bar

The top of the rear shock tower is bolted by three 14mm bolts.

I want to lengthen these fasteners to bolt on the harness bar, which is 1/4" thick. How do I do this?
I have not taken apart the shock, so I am asking if these bolts fall separately, or are they part of the assembly at the top of the shock tower?

I am hoping thet they aren't part of an assembly.

They are part of the assembly. What you need are different nuts that are threaded all the way through. The OEM nuts aren't, and so won't thread on enough.

1/4" thick sounds like a VERY thick plate though, is this some kind of custom bar or something? I don't recall the M2/Raceshop bar being that thick.

Thanks. So, I just need different nuts, good.

I could be over-eyeing the plate thickness. It is a M2 bar.
