you can get them on ebay. FWIW, if you buy a new TPS, which you might need someday anyway, they come with new bolts. Try Advance Autoparts

Hey thanx for the info, but I ended up tapping the holes to a 10/32 hole. Hope this will help others in the same situation as the new tps don't come with the new screws. At least that's what all the parts stores around here told me, even the gm dealership said the same thing??
