To make a long frustrating story short:

Changed my fuel pump today, drop two of the six 8 mm bolts and my 8 mm socket into the gap between my fuel tank and body. Tried getting them out, no luck, hands too fat, couldn't even see where they went. And no, they're not in the tank, i saw where they fell into.

Anyone who's changed pumps before probably knows the gap i'm talking about.

Anyways, does anyone know the thread pitch/size of the bolts and where i could find them. I scavenged through my junk of bolts and had no luck. I know the head size is 8mm...

Also Is this bad for my car/fuel pump/ fuel tank? Am i gonna blow up?? :eek3d:

find any 8 mm bolt as long as thier not going to puncture the tank your good..the cover is there to only protect the harness and no you will not blow up..unless you smoke and the ashes gets in the tank..now your fu*ked lol
