Had the panel under the steering wheel off for a while messing with wires. GF cleaning out the car tossed the bolts that I had in the cupholder for it...
About to go on 4000mile trip and don't really want to loose my legs in an accident. All the plastic panels I know are pretty much the t20 screws that I should be able to find at the part store, but the metal panel I know had some actual bolts that were t25/t27 head I think. Anyone have any idea what size/thread?
Golf but I assume Jetta/golf are probably the same - this thing: https://parts.vw.com/p/Volkswagen_2...-Knee-Bolster-Wo-R32/48267423/1J1880499C.html

Can't find any diagrams that also show the fasteners for the dash.

Edit: Ok think I found them N-906-986-06 M4.2 x 16mm Guess I'm never going to find those at a local store.

Do you have a Fastenal locally? They have lots of hard-to-find bolts in stock. But sometimes you need to buy the whole bag.
