Replacement screws/bolts

I am stripping out my interior and replacing it, bit by bit.

Obviously, to remove the seats, I spent two days drilling out a few soft seat bolts.

So, does anyone know what the best replacement seat bolt so I don't have this problem again?

Also, I would like to replace the interior carpet screws, seat back retaining screws, heater control hex bolts, etc...

I would like to order them from this forum host if possible--does anyone know part numbers for some of these?

The parts book can give you the proper size, but I also find my local Ace Hardware has most of the metric bolts and fasteners I need to replace.

For seat rails, you should use low-profile allen bolts, at least grade 10.9 (M8x35, 1.25).
