Default Rear Lca bolts

I just got new suspension put in and the lca to trailing arm bolt broke when reinstalled. We put a grade 10.9 full thread metric in there for the time being. The Honda service shops are closed today so I couldn't even order one. Now my question will it be safe to drive to and from work until I get the oem replacement? Work is only about 3 miles away(6 mile round trip). Also any good places online to order OEM Honda parts?

Thank you

-Edit, the car is a 95 Civic EX w/o abs

Well I have seen pictures of less than grade 10 metric bolts breaking after only a few miles of driving. I don't want that happen to me, trust me I have really bad luck with cars.

Thanks PianoMan,
I remembered hearing about Majestic Honda before, but forget what it was called. I ordered my new bolts from them.
oem ftw

allricedout- "i wouldnt even put those in."
Put what in? The ones I put in or the ones that 7808 was running?
