I am looking for those 10mm bolts and washers used all under the hood to secure various things. A lot of mine are rusted and looking pretty bad, and I'd like to pick up some OE (or better?) protected (Galvanized?) or stainless (weatherproof?) ones.
Can some one recommend a site or course of action? I know it's mostly superficial, but I am going to be super cleaning under the hood (replacement Honda wires, btw, can I get those elsewhere besides Honda directly, or can some one recommend BETTER wires than OE *(+grounding strap)).
Input welcome.

Not sure what section to look under to find the bolts I want.
Does anyone know their true size? 10mm x1.25mm?
Also, it looks like it's a bolt, miniwasher, and then a big washer. The ones I have in the house (once derusted) are set up like this. I'd rather save $ and go to Home Depot and get them there than .50cents a pop + shipping for possibly the wrong ones.

I know you can take one out and run over to ace hardware or true-value and they have a little plate with holes to measure the thread by. They should also have stainless steel replacements there.

Yar, I am going to go do that today at a Sears Hardware, though it's a small one and I hope they can help. Once I have the information I will post it incase anyone else is watching this thread or (g0d forbid) does a search!

*update*
Autozone had me covered. Had little thread thing to put the screw into and everything. I got the right length, and the small and large washers to go with. I also bought some Anti-seize to prevent the screws from rusting (two metals together in the threads) and getting crappy.
These are all 'Dorman'
The #s are
M6-1.0x16mm Hex Head Cap Screws (3 per pack) [780-216]
1/4''(M6) Flat Washers (18 per pack) [766-010]
1/4''(M6) Flat Washers Grade 8 (Automotive) (8 per pack) [965-010]
A waste of money I'm sure because the screws are functional still, but the heads are getting mishapen/funky from rust so I'd like to replace them.

for the record, you can order bolts from your local honda dealer, but be prepared to PAY. Its a joke what they charge but if you need something that is SPECIFIC then there's really no better way IMO.
