I can't find these things anywhere. What am I doing wrong? Are they called something different?

Why not take one to local nuts & bolts shop to get one? Probably cheaper exercise than a genuine one.

yeah no problem i do this 20x a day for prototyping devices

thing is i’m gonna search based on the head type, pan head maybe? it’s not flat head and it’s not that cylinder shape. and then i’m just going to match the head size, bolt length, etc etc.

this totally works, but if every other part piece bold screw in this rebuild is OE/OEM or reputable third party (Mann, Bosch, Febi) it’s gonna bug me that that one screw isn’t

i can totally just get over it tho if that’s what the senior chaps here suggest

Fully understand the need to using OE bolt, if it was a case of a dropped/lost/broken one the hide the odd one at the back :p

I was tempted to get stronger bolts for the transmission pan, those bolts are so weal/light. Thought they were plastic.
