I can't remember exactly as it'd been 3 years since I brought mine it's either an M12x1.25 or 1.5, but instead of shelling out for another two random bolts I ran a 12mm drill through them to take a standard common or garden M12 bolt.

I'll post up some pics tomorrow after when I'm back in the garage.
I underestimated the amount and quality of prep required so I've only had limited success. I tried plating a caliper after a 3 day bath in oxalic acid to get rid of the rust, an alkaline based degrease and an activating hydrochloric acid bath but it went horribly wrong!
