    M12x1.5 I think, but it might be M12x1.25. Just get 4 of each.

    Most hardware shops should carry M12 stuff.... and they're a 1.25 metric fine thread.

    Go to a wrecking yard. Ask them where abouts in the mud they last removed a Toyota gearbox. Pick the bolts up out of the mud.

    The problem is, they often don't. In the worlds of construction, building, and home renovations... M12 x 1.25 is almost unheard of.

    You are best to fully strip down 1 Toyota car in the front yard, and keep every single little bolt in various glass jars for many years afterwards. You never know when you need 1. lol

    In my case it was more than 1 car, and I then got kicked out of home. But, all them little bolts are still kicking around somewhere.

    I bought 1 metric bolt the other day, it was $5.
