There are no obvious missing bolts in your picture.

This was a reference. Why would I post a thread about a missing bolt then post a picture with it there? C'mon now lol. You happen to know the dimensions/type?

They have the piece you can thread your bolt in to tell you the size.

There are 4 "bolts" in your picture, which one are you asking about?

I thought about that, but it was a pain in the *** putting those things in with barely any room to get my hands in there. I have to use an open ended wrench 8mm (I think) or 10. Can't remember.

The hanger bracket that is attached to the frame that holds the rubber grommet for the exhaust pin things. I have an 06Z so that isnt my picture. I took that from another thread.

I'm also looking for these bolts. I actually need a longer version of the same so I can mount a Tow Hook and another bracket to those hanger holes. I've got one out of the car but it's some strange taptite or some such tapered thread bolt.... metric to boot I think. Not easy to find a 1/4" longer version...

Anybody got the spec on this bolt or an assembly photo with the spec? The bolt says W9.8 on the head... not sure what this refers to either. THanks!
