Default Throttle body bolt

Well after 5 months of sitting in pieces, I finally got my car together and driveable enough to leave my friend's house and come home. Somewhere along the way of buying parts and getting it back together, I lost one of the long top throttle body bolts (I thought I had everything bagged, but I only had the one).

I've been to 4 or 5 different hardware stores now and none of them have a long enough bolt in the right metric size (the M8 x 1.25 I think, it's been a while now). Is this going to end up having to be a dealer item or am I just not looking in the right places? Or does anybody have an extra one laying around?

I've been to a couple of different Ace Hardwares in the KC area, a True Value, etc.

I'd really like to get this in soon so the car will run normally again.

I will look around and see if I still have one. The dealer should have them pretty cheap though... its just a bolt.
