I've search and I couldn't find a post about bolt sizing. What exactly is the size of the bolts? Thanks

it's in the mods section
copied right from it.............

Sorry everyone to bring up an old topic, but for the bolt size, I checked the VFAQ

(http://my.att.net/p/s/community.dll?ep=16&groupid=94647&ck=)

for the mod and the bolt size is listed there, but for some odd reason, when I tried to get those bolts to thread, they wouldn't. Now I was looking at my stock bolts and the threads seem to be just a bit smaller than the ones that the VFAQ stated. Unless the bolts used for the GS-T is different from our cars? That would be weird IMO though.

So my question to all of you here is whether or not you think that my OEM bolts got changed somehow, or do I just have a odd situation on my hands?

I don't mind having to return the bolts I bought, but I just kinda found it weird that the bolts suggested were wrong for my car ?!?!?!?!?!?

To anyone that can help me, I'd appreciate it. Thank you in advance everyone.
