Just go slow and steady and you can tap the threads yourself with those screws. That's what I did. The biggest pain is that clearance is tight so you'll need a pretty short screw driver to get to that back middle bolt.

I believe I used an M6 tap to create the threads and used M6 bolts from Ace Hardware. Works great.
