Unhappy Where to buy upper control arm bolts (not the arms itself)

So the bolts on the passenger front side got loose and I lost half of the bolts so there's this knocking noise sometimes when I turn the wheel. How can I buy just these bolts without having to pay MSRP for the entire two arms! Thank you.

^Yep! And while there, invest in some locking washers for each of those bolts so this won't happen again :

Theat looks custom made by Megan. Not sure how well engineered that piece is. Not sure if nuts will be a better idea with the lock washers. Good luck.
