why yes they do have the bolts...i actually got mine at lowe's...they have them in the drawers in plastic bags...they are the same size and thread just longer...
Not my Home Depot or Lowe's!  They won't special order them either. Nearest TruValue or Ace Hardware is a 30 minute drive.

the stock bolts should be 50mm, if you don't use the plastic plate you could get some nuts to hold the shifter in

that's what everyone should do....why even bother with the plastic plate.....i actually used that plastic plate as the plate to raise my shifter...i did my install way before the metal plates were made....just take a stock bolt to lowe's find the thread pattern,and match one up,and get one a little longer,and just use nuts to secure the bolts....very simple...that plastic plate underneath in not necessary,and actually causes some clearance issues on some cars(including mine)i just made my riser plate out of it...the nuts will be more secure anyway...

as a matter of fact i was hoping you guys would tell me that cause i picked up the nuts with the bolts. i remembered some used the plastic piece as the plate to lift the shifter. i figured if it doesn't have to go where it is stock, then i could do without it and use a shorter bolt. i'll try it tonight and see if i can make it work. thanks guys

Well just to let everyone know, I got terry haines to tell me how to adjust my shift linkage and everything is golden now. Goes into every gear.
