im looking for an bolt with a pitch thread of 11mmx1.25 about 20mm long or shorter....It's the bolt that bolts the seat buckle reciever into your seats....
i've tried all the major store like Home Depot, Orchard Supply, Napa Auto, Kragen's, Pep Boy's, mom and pop small automotive shops, and no one seems to have this....The dealership will only sell the buckle receiver with bolts that costs $50, but the bolt is still too long for my aftermarket seat brackets....

i could have mine cut down, but i'd rather be safe and not mess up the only bolts i have....

finding this size is tougher than i thought!:mad:
anyone know where i can find an obscure bolt size?

dont be a wimp!
cut yours witha dremel
then use a nice file (go get one if you dont have one) and file it down until you can thread it on. its not difficult, just have to be patient

my friends did it for a wheel stud (filed down a few threads)
and another for the axle because the end was crossthreaded/damaged
works great and no problems

just be sure to be patient!

that was my other option, but like i said, these are my only bolts i have....i dont want to pay $50 for just a single bolt, and maybe there is such a bolt out there somewhere that i dont know about....

just trying to dig up a backup set in case i mess up cutting my original bolt
