Audi S3 brace nuts/bolts and washers part numbers

Part numbers for Audi S3 upper brace nut/bolts and washers.

Hi guys basically I have the S3 brace but ideally would like the correct bolts/nuts and washers when I come to eventually come to fit it to my Leon.

If anyone has the correct part numbers so I can simply walk into an Audi main dealer and order these it would be great.
Alternatively if people didn't buy genuine parts then what size thread do I require for the bolts and what size also? - the holes in the S3 brace itself look quite on the large side to be honest.

Thanks in advance - Liam.

Liam i went to a enginering supplies shop and got 6 high tensile bolts and nuts in black, far cheaper than audi

M10 x 25 bolts (BZP) - 6 off
M10 nyloc nuts (BZP) - 6 off
M10 washer (BZP) - 12 off
Any industrial or engineering based place should be able to get these
Also you dont need high tensile ones, 8.8 grade will be fine as the force is shear not tension

Just in case you havent got them..

While your in an engineering shop, look for a 17mm combination open spanner and floppy socket (it was the only tool i could get in behind the shock without removing them), black touch up paint, and set of drill bits up to 10mm.

Hope this helps!!
