Coincidence? I just lost the upper right bolt on the engine bay door on my way up here to the Sierra's. I plan to make one when I get back home. I can't access the search either.

Steve's on it - thanks for reporting it.

We did have a server issue at the data center first thing this morning - might be related.

It's back.  Seems it just didn't restart when the site got rebooted.

fath,

Here is a link to a thread from years ago that will interest you. It has part numbers of what you need so read through the post. Lots cheaper than what you have found.

I too replaced with a standard shoulder bolt. Big unmentioned part of this is the washers. Get the best washers you can find and yes there are different grades. Hard will stay in position and insure alignment and a longer service life
