Soft top bolts lost. Need help

[Neohiofan]

i bought a sailcloth 2 door soft top for my JL Rubicon off a forum member. During shipment the bolts were lost. I have searched through parts list and think I located 2 of the 3 bolts I need. Is there anyone that can help with the third bolts part numbers and make sure the first two are correct. Below is a link to the install manual.

On page 1 I’m missing J, K, & L..
I think I’ve found the part numbers for
J - part# 06512163AA - need 4 of these
K - part# 06512235AA - need 2 of these
L - I cannot find a part number - need 12 of these.

Please help. I’m trying to get these ordered and installed before the 17th. Headed to Daytona beach. No fun at the beach with a hard top.

Shit ... I just replaced a soft top I smashed, but, I threw all the bolts out last week. Sorry.

Pete. I'm going to take a stab at this.

I am a 4 door Dual top owner. I presume from context you to be a 2 door hard top owner.

Securing your hardtop, I want to presume, are a bunch of M8 bolts not much, if any different from part "K."

Using your tool kit, or an appropriately sized torx wrench/bit, take one out and see if it fits in the places where the "L" bolts in your attached instructions go.

I'm thinking the "K" and "L" bolts *may* be of similar threading and length, barring maybe a different size (or type, e.g. rubber) washer. If so, you can always solve that problem online or at a big box store.

I found j & k. L is a hard top bolt. I took one out and it fits. Just need a length on it. Not sure if it’ll fit between bracket and swivel piece.

Length: Amazon or ebay to the rescue. If you can't find length, overbuy length, along with M8 nuts. Thread nut on bolt beyond desired length of bolt first, cut bolt to shorter desired length, back out nut and discard, viola.

Yep, take the bolt to local hardware store, not a big box store and get replacement. Also, I’ve had luck with auto parts store for some metric bolts
