Need Bolts for Keyless Gas Cap!

Just bought a keyless gas cap from sling shot racing! Naturally, the lovely owner before me never had screws in the OEM cap. Must have discarded them for weight saving lol.

Anyways, going to the depot later, does anybody know the fastener size for those bolts??

Glad to hear, I personally changed mine out for Stainless Steel, as almost all the fasteners, with a few being titanium also.

I have found that Ace hardware has a good assortment of metric , even some Stainless Steel. My local hardware store has them in stock, strange that a small store has them which is good for me. If I have no luck, or need something they don't carry I look on eBay.

I've replaced almost all the fasteners with either Stainless Steel, or Titanium as this point.

Aluminum is okay, but I prefer strength, and durability, with that said I don't see the need to replace/remove the gas cap too often.
