Default Can anyone tell me where to find these?

I'm not sure if I have the name for them wrong as I've been calling them wingnuts/bolts. I've checked various sites and I keep running across the wingnuts just not what I'm lookin for. I'm pretty much looking for a site that sells just about every odd and end imaginable.



If your wondering why I need them I'm pretty much trying to take this bracket here and be able to remove it with ease so that when I want to take my hardtop off I'll have the option of still using the soft top if necessary. My thoughts are 4 twist off screws would be better than having to use a socket set everytime I choose to go topless and I won't be taking the chance of weakening the fiberglass by removing the bolts from the top directly.


Had to borrow this picture from : Suzuka-blue-S2k

Oh cool Thank Mac, Some of those are much cooler than what I was even initially looking for.

I thought I could get them at Ace but the local one here didn't have them.. I could try calling one more tomorow.. Fastenal has them but the online prices are sort of ridiculous because they sell them in bulk.

i'd try lowes or orchard supply first than ace hardware. ace hardware always fails me when it comes to bolts/screws

i'd keep the sockets if i were you, for security purposes.

Good call, I actually always keep my storage console locked. I'm sort of weary about using OEM latches too as security latches I'm sure are better but this isn't my old Civic. I refuse to hack up my car for aftermarket parts... I'll chance it.

I always try both Home Depot and lowes when I'm trying to find a good screw.
