Which bolts?

All bolts are interchangeable with b18b, so just ask at the dealership, though its quite pricey though you know you are getting the right grade and length bolt.

Make sure you didn't stripped the holes too. You might want to tap the holes before putting the bolts in. If its stripped really badly, you might need the helicoil.

^^^ i think he means he stripped the actual bolts themselves.

i had this same problem, just go to your local hardware store and get grade 8 automotive bolts. just bring in the old ones for sizing. i did that when i replaced my lca's cost like eight bucks for all of the bolts. ordering from a dealership is pretty expensive , so i would for sure check hardware stores first
