Default Exhaust question

Long story short and through a series of unfortunate events, I lost the bolts that attach the flex pipe to the pipe coming off the headers in the front of the car. Does anybody know what size and thread that bolt is?

Thanks,

Edit:It's a 2001 RX if that makes a difference

In a pinch I would try a stainless, but best thing to do is go to your local dealer and get the nuts/bolts from them (you may like to call in advance as these may not be stocked). It may cost you more like 200% but total price will not break your budget and you will have least problems in the long run.

I think you are looking for new studs. Part # 90116-10149 Should be less than $2 each from a dealer. You might need to get new nuts too.

#7 here?

No, they weren't studs, they were actual bolts with a 14mm head on it. The nuts are welded to the backside of the flange on the catalytic converter side. Fortunately that part number gets me enough information on the size and threads so I should be able to get a stainless bolt to replace it. Thanks.
