I replaced a number of mine with s/steel bolts. Most of them from eBay

There all available from local fixings places, maybe not the fancy anodized ones but the stainless ones. just take in what you want and they will soon match them all up for you :D if you can get proper 316 stainless(marine grade) as well they will last a lifetime before rusting, the cheaper 303 grade will eventually start to pepper with rust.

Do they look ok?

iirc m6x1.25 bolts are what you want. Most are 12mm long but you may want a few longer ones as well, just in case. Sorry, it's been a while since I replaced mine.

stainless bolts and fixings are the way forward.

The give a clean modern look.

Hex heads. socket heads and mushroom heads.

on all my builds they feature extensively.

As aleady said there are loads of highly experienced sellers on Ebay to buy from. Screwfix have a decent basic range that I use but for one car their quantities may be too much.. And again as mentioned local trade counters at specialists are ofter staffed by helpful knowledgable people.

im not a fan of the coloured stuff but I have seen some really nice installations using them and Ceejay will moan if I dont give him a mention!!!!:tt2:

I wasn't too sure on coloured ones. I'm doing a yellow oem car, not sure if stainless steel will look alright either?

Or I could use black bolts?

Might have to get both and see what looks better
