hood bolt size

Does anybody know the bolt sizes (not the head size, but the thread size) that mount the hood on the hinges? I think they are two different sizes, i need to go to the parts store and pick up some bolts to fit. Thanks!

Re: hood bolt size

Mine have a 10mm head. That means they are either 6.0mm or 6.3mm not sure of the pitch sorry. Pull out a fender bolt and take it to the hardware store. They can match it up.
