Default need help identifying nuts and bolts

ok, i need to install a soft top on my project s2000 and i dont have any of the nuts and bolts to hold the softtop/motors in. The diagram for the softtop on majestic is confusing as to what holds it up, so i was hoping someone would know and could tell me which ones to order.
Thanks in advance

My interior is currently out, with a 2006 (I think) soft top and frame installed (no motors installed, but I have them for reference). I can take photos of whatever you're confused about, if you describe the area in detail. I might also be able to find specifics in the shop manual for you.

On an unrelated note, I've been looking for some cheap roll hops without plastics, if you want to sell the ones you've got.

Assuming you already have the rear, black trim piece at the rear,,, There are about 6-8 12mm Head bolts per soft top bracket,, (ea side),, the OEM ones are gold colored,,, Then the rear of the top goes on,, over the studs at the rear,, then the 3 stamped steel stiffener plates on top of the same studs at the rear of the top,, that's all held on by about 10 or so 10mm head nuts,, then the motors go on, (3 studs per side),, held again, with 10mm head nuts,,, Then the corner braces over the motors,, ea with about 6-8 10mm head bolts,, that's about it,,, ASSUMING you already have all the plastic drain pieces in the corners,, rear trim,, etc,, etc

if you could take me some pics that would be awesome!!! I just need a few shots of the rear and sides of where the top/frame/motors are held in from the inside of the car.

I have a box full of bolts I kept from a parts car. Do you need ALL the bolts for the soft top install or just certain ones? Either way Ill look and see what I have. If I have have any of the bolts you need, you can have them, just pay for the shipping. There is a very good possibility Ill have what you need. PM me and lemme know.
