I get such hardware from a "threaded device" specialty house in
Birmingham, AL. I think the place is called Alabama  Bolt. They have
just about anything threaded there that I could ever want. Lowe's and
Home Depot stores carry some metric stuff, but get above 10 mm dia. and
things get difficult. I recentl;y needed two  allen head 10 MM bolts for
the AC compressor on my 88 GL. One had to be clear of threads down the
shank for 3/4 inch from the bottom of the bolt head, and the other had
to have threads all the way. And they were different lengths as well.
Alabama Bolt had them. If you live anywhere near a larger city you can
probably find at least one such specialty house. Industry really needs
these places.
