WTB or pls provide specs: SW20 mounting bolts for stock airbox

Morning folks,
 
I'm reinstalling the stock air intake/air box in place of the pod mount I currently have.  I have all the bits EXCEPT the three large bolts that mount through the bottom of the airbox, through the mounting plate onto the car.
 
Does anyone in VIC have some I could buy, or can provide me the length/width/thread patterns so I can get replacements?
 
The mounting plate is shown as number 2 in this diagram; I cannot find part numbers or specs for the screws/bolts themselves.

Cheers folks.

    Here's some good pics - it's the three bolts shown in the bottom of the air box in these pics.

    And they mount through the plate shown here:

    They are 12 mm but I would love to know length/screw pattern please so I can buy the right thing.
     
    Cheers

    I dont have that plate so cant cheek. But I would say M8x1.25. No idea on the length
     
    You mean the head is 12mm? That would make the threaded part 8mm. 1.25 is a pretty common thread pitch on the MR2

    Thanks mate - I didn't know a bolt head measurement was linked to the thread as well.  Yep 12mm head bolt.
     
    Cool well at least if I know that they're linked then I can just get a range of lengths of bolt and try them.  I remember them being fairly long - 10cm ish I think.  
     
    Cheers!

    The head to thread can vary, just a educated guess.
    Bolts are measured by the thread not the head.
     
    I seam to have plenty of spare bolts left over if you wanted.

    I'll be able to work it out from that.  Thank you!
