Can someone tell me the size and thread of the bolts that hold this exhaust mount to the rear of the subframe.

Thanks
Steve

the screws have nuts on the back on the bottom part of the hinge, the top half of the hinge has studs with nuts on the back. not sure if the the threads are the same.

They are 1/4" UNF. It was loose screws (Pozi-drive) and nuts for the hinge to body and should have studs in the hinge to boot lid.

Thanks GT. One of my studs felt loose when i used one of the bolts so i wasnt sure if they were the same size. It could be one of my studs is bent.

I will further investigate but thank you.
