Bucket Seat Tract Bolt Size 1972 CS

Good morning,
What is the correct bolt size to mount the bucket seat tract to the floorboard for a 1972 Cutlass Supreme. I saw kits online but I’d rather purchase local if possible. Thank you.

5/16" x 1" for the bolts. Pic shows an original (at the bottom) and a replacement. Both have captive flat washers on them and the washers have small "spikes" on the underside to help keep things locked down once tightened. You may be able to use a thick flat washer with no "spikes".....it helps spread the load out over the foot of the seat track.

Hardware bolts work just fine. I use flange washer head bolts for those two positions and pinch nuts for the studs.

They do, but be sure to get Grade 8.
