Oh, I see what you're asking now.

Are you talking about a bolt or a stud? I can't remember what Hondas use anymore.

Yeah, or drill and tap for a larger size and then modify the holes in the mount to match. Either way would work. Helicoils would be the preferred way so the hardware will stay the stock size.
