go to a junk yard for them. $7.50 each is cheap!! from the dealer. i went to get the hanger bolts for a fuel tank..it was $28.00 for each bolt and $2.00 each for the nut!! we grabbed them at the junk yard for $5.00 and the tank was already off the cars we looked at. actually i got 4 total for $10.00. i wanted spares

ever try removing LCA bolts? they are horrible at home with torches and impact let alone in a junk yard. i might go OEM....brand new for a rebuild.....https://honda-tech.com/forums/appearance-build-threads-122/my-ej1-build-boosted-ls-coupe-2318659/

$7.12 each. No biggy really. i have a lot more stuff to order anyways

True, that actually doesnt seem that bad, when you compare that to how much the charge for a freaking plastic clip
Maybe you can talk to them and get a discount for ordering alot?

well i see it like this.....i replaced/am replacing the entire *** end of the car basically why put old rusted bolts back in there? the rest of the bolts in my rear disc swap i purchased brand new from honda...i guess i better do the same with the LCA bolts lol

i vote junkyard, and take some good tools with you. local junkyards dont charge for nuts/bolts so maybe im inpartial

why not just get quality bolts at a local hardware store. m10 x1.25 80-85mm long. Probably $1-2 per bolt

OEM ftw, I'd rather buy the new bolts from Honda, and be set for good. You wanna KNOW your car's reliable :D

oem nuts/bolts in a package differ from ones off a car how? i know im a tad cheap, but there's no way i would pay $50 for something i could get from a local junkyard for ~$5 including entrance fee and gas

i would get the new ones. it's worth the piece of mind

I have a few bolts laying around after I did my rear disc conversion last week. I will see exactly what I have when I get home, but if you want them, just pay for shipping and I'll send them to you. I know for sure I have the bolts that hold the lca to the trailing arm, but not sure what else. LMK.

X2, if you were really worried you could get these in grade 8 or better and they'll be just as reliable as oem. whatever you do put some anti-seize on the new ones so you won't have a similar problem again.

x2.....just because hahaha thats why

i paid $15 for a lca bolt from honda ....7 is awsome lol

I would tend to agree, but the LCA bolts are a special self-locking bolt with a small piece of nylon at the end. Maybe not a big issue, but it's worth noting that they ARE different from a standard bolt.

Junk yard or hardware store and if your really complaining about the price for OEM and argue you want to use OEM bolts them why bother making thread geeeZ. Take your bolts to the nearest harware store and match it up . . . dotn worry your 2000HP honda wont break it loose if u do it right. Thread lock the b!tch so you feel safer haha.
