I use a 1/4" drive and give it about 1/8 turn after snug.

hand tight + 1/8 turn. The only require 43-79 in/lbs. (that's 4-7 ft/lb.)

yup i "lost' one

ace or true value can remedy that. it is just a 8mm bolt i believe take one of the ones you have and compare and it will be alot easier. ;)

I have a bag of them scavenged from various pull-a-part cars. If you can't find something at a hardware store let me know, and I can try to mail something.
