No, they are just cheap stainless bolts readily available on eBay. At least go to Middletons website and buy some polished ones.

Then again I guess there is polished and dazling !It appears the bolts are also not fully threaded hopefully the right length for the job.

Also can't remember if the original bolts have washers or the washer is built into the bolt - no idea what the right term is for that either.Ted, the original fasteners are flanged hexagon head. That means they have a smaller hexagon size and the flange means no washer required.Clearly I need to do some reading up on engineering terms.
