I have tried a couple hardware stores and they don't have them in stainless steel? Any idea where I can find them?

Exactly which bolts are you talking about?
The ones that go around the fuel cap on the outside. They are exposed to weather and they rust since the ones that were put on are not stainless steel.
Pro Bolt has them
yoyodyne will probably have aluminum or ti. mcmaster carr will have stainless.
Ah crap, anyone know the size they are?

5mm .8 pitch...not sure how long.
You can measure the old ones.
Just got mine from ProBolt in aluminuin [thumbsup]
Lowes also has them. I just bought a set a few weeks ago. They also have them in black. I think the total was around $4
The black ones are the ones that rust
If I were buying new ones, I'd certainly buy aluminum ones. Light (oooh) and those bolts bear no load, unless you somehow lean on the open door.
Any GOOD hardware store should have both alu and SS. Look in the Yellow pages under Machine Tool supplies. THAT kind of hardware store as opposed to HD, Lowes or Ace.
Got a pack of 25 from Mcmaster's anyone need any?
Crap, three of the 5 bolts are all different. I have to get like a 75 bolts just to get them all in one. Ah.
