The 2 screws which attach the passenger strap to a CB550 seat...does anyone know who sells them?

I just got stainless steel metric hex bolts..rounded them off..polished..and went for it.  You can't tell the difference between stock and these.

Hope this gives some ideas.  I couldn't find OEM stuff myself..

Hey thanks for the reply. I've ended up getting universal head stainless steel screws and making my own shanks. It should work pretty well.

I just saw some for sale the other day, I'll see if I can remember where they were.
