My best source for loose metric bolts/screws for my Honda has always been, in order from best to worst:
True Value hardware
Lowes, Home Depot, Ace Hardware
Like the links says, an auto parts store

You're welcome. I was considering replacing my TPS several weeks ago when troubleshooting a certain problem and ran across that great link above.

bring in the old tps bolt, they should be able to measure it and get you a matching one with a head.

why would u come post a bashing remark like that. ur rediculous and nobody cares what u think lileghatch. ur an *** for posting that. i got my bolts from a place called s&s fasteners. found them online. and payed 1 dollar for them and got 4 of them so hardware stores suck. and btw knowing the right size is key, not goin trial and error like an a**hole. thats dumbest thing ive ever herd of so just dont post remarks like u have cause u make urself sound stupid. it took me 2 seconds to get my bolts instead of an hour of bein at a hardware store. time is money!!!!!!!
