A little help plz?

Was driving and then all of a sudden a hear a boom and then the sound of metal on concrete, pulled over and found this...I've had this car for about a week and I guess either the 3 top bolts fell out or were never there. Does any1 know the size of the bolts?? I tried searching the forum and couldn't find anything. Thanks a lot guys, I wanna get back on the road ASAP

I'm not sure, I know the 2 on the bottom that were still there were studs, I figured it might have been only those 2 cuz there's not enough clearance to fit a bolt. But this is my first SR so I don't know really

Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes.

The studs have two different thread pitch. One for the casting, and one for the nut. Get the right parts. ATP Turbo might be the easiest place to find them if not the cheapest.

stud+nut combo is the best screws get seized and break and can come loose a whole lot easier.
