Default What size bolts to mount a sparco seat?

Hey guys I just got a brand new sparco sprint seat yesterday and I am attempting to mount it to my corbeau seat bracket. The only thing i'm missing is the bolts to mount the seat to the rails. It seems that the sparco seat's threads are of a weird pitch and i couldn't find a bolt to fit it at any hardware store i went to. It looks like the bolt is a size 8mx1.00 or 1.25, but neither fit. I'm about to just give up and spent $18 on the mounting kit .

Go downtown to Pleasants....If anyone will have it, its them, and they can find it for you.

well so far I have lugged the seat around to Lowes, Napa, and True Value hardware which has a pretty good assortment and none of them had the bolt I needed nor could they tell me what size it was. I am trying to find a positive id on the size so i don't have to lug it around to any other places .

haha, Pleasants downtown has 100x more than most other places, seriously, but I see your point too. I don't know what to say else though...

They're on Broad St not exactly "Downtown".....Its East of Boulevard but West of the Siegel Center, on the North side of Broad (Left side if you're headed into town from the West End.)
