I'm picking up a front skid, and need to buy the mounting hardware. What do I need to buy & can I get it somewhere other than a dealership?

I know the head is 15mm (at least mine is, I've heard others people have different sizes), not sure of the thread size.

M10 with 1.5 pitch I THINK but its been a while since I replaced those bolts, the head does take a 15mm socket and you torque it to 45ft/lbs.

You'll probably want washers too (I think they're attached to the factory bolts). Make sure you get the right grade of bolts. Should be marked 10.9 on the head. And the length I think is 30mm.

And don't get the ones that are only half threaded. You want fully threaded bolts like this:
