Qty 6 - 31101096987 - bolts
Qty 6 - 33306760587 - nuts

Well, they're about $75 for 6 bolts and 6 nuts and that's about the best price out there. I was wondering if anybody has found high grade bolt that'd would do for less money.

I like to follow manufactures procedure but that's 50% cost of actual starter and while I'll buy them if I have to, I was wondering if there is a different solution.

Thanks in advance for any info.
Hey man I did this job last year and paid no where near the prices at the dealer now not sure why they have gone up so much...this is the PN I used which matches yours identically and taken from RealOEM. I usually save all my receipts and will verify but I did get them from the dealer for sure. Im guessing you can use the sizing in the description to match up the bolt but Ill leave that to the physics pro's on the site if it will work.

Ill also pull my records to see if I can find the prices I paid but think I was close to the $60-70 range IIRC.
