They're not specified in the P book, so I'll see if I can't drum some up from my spare parts bins and measure them up for you later this evening unless someone else can come up with it before me.

Well... I thought I had some earmarked in a ziplock bag, but I guess not. Anyone else?

I know that the all 4 nuts (2 on each side) are socket size 13mm. There are many of these on the fiero so this should be easy to find extra nuts.

Actually, there the same size as the seat track nuts.

Hope this helps some...

OK I think I know the answer, but that begs the question: Are you looking for the bolts that hold the decklid to the hinge, or the nuts that hold the hinges to the car?

Just checked, the bolt size is M8 X 1.25 X 30

If your going to use any bolt of this size, don't forget to use a washer. The bolt has a 5mm space before the threads start from the head. (for the washer)
