They are just toilet bolts, found at any hardware store. I painted mine and applied lots of t-jell or anti-seize prior to installing.[]

I bought stainless ones on Warthog's suggestion, ordered them online, as per Makoshark's suggestion.

Pretty quick service, and much cheaper than West Marine. They are already installed.

Your local Mako dealer should carry them too. I replaced a few when I repainted my windshield two years ago.

Didnt know they were standard toilet bolts or that they came in stainless too!

No big deal, but my "User Name" is Makoshako, not Makoshark. I couldn't get MakoWako on AOL IM. Now I sorta like Makoshako. Don't ask me what it means.
