New bolts

Bongy is up on the ramps for its winter restoration. Treated a few rusty areas (with the awesome POR15 kit), and removed both front and rear anti roll bars to strip and repaint.

After removing the undertray and front bumper, I've noticed a few missing bolts and some are rusted beyond repair.

Does anyone know where to get similar 10mm head bolt/washer combos to fit?

Cheers :D

When I recently changed my radiator, I replaced some of the rusted bolts with ratchet ties in the locations where that is feasible. They won't rust.

I used these for the under tray :-

Along with a good dab of copperslip to prevent seizure and a penny washer to stop it biting into the plastic too much.
