Headlight Bolt Size

I lost a bolt doing a headlight upgrade on my 2.2. Does anyone know the size of them so I can get a replacement?

Easiest solution is to go to the hardware store, grab one of your bolts you have, and then go in and match them up.

Alternatively the dealership should have them.

The head size is. I think OP was mainly concerned about thread size and pitch.

yea...exactly...i went into a Home Depot armed with only the information that it's 10mm and found it not to be that helpful. But I suppose I shall call the dealership because I don't really feel like taking another bolt out. Thanks all!

The standard bolt GM/Chevy uses for most equipment is an M6 x 1.0 bolt.

I just replaced my headlight bolts yesterday after they blew away during a storm, I used four M6x1.0 by... 20mm bolts and they fit perfectly.
