[Icouldntthinkofaname]

Bought my 88 gt vert a bit back from a guy who was starting to work on it, came with new 1/4 window motors but with no old ones so i had to get a new plate, didn't get the bolts the go from the adapter the big plate what size are they so I can get them from ace hardware, they're the silver ones in the picture I need to know length thread count etc. Thanks

All the body bolts are metric and may be problematic to correctly size by eyeballing them. Each MM is about.040 of an inch

Home Depot has a plastic size gauge that has bolt diameters and lengths
See https://www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-12-in-Plastic-Bolt-Gauge-801004/204276636#overlay

Bolt diameters:
The following descriptions refer to the threaded section of the bolt.
An 6 MM bolt is .240' which is a little smaller than a 1/4" inch bolt.
A 7 MM bolt is .280" and odd size that I haven't seen very often,
An 8 MM bolt is .320" which is little larger than a 5/16:

Bolt lengths:
12 MM is a little less than 1/2"
14 MM is a little larger than 1/2"
20 MM is a little larger than 3/4"
25 MM is about 1"
