I agree. Cheap and worth putting new one's in. That being said, I find my self not knowing what the exact size of a bolt, nut, etc is until I take it out. For doing work on a daily-driver, I need to have the new fasteners in-hand before I do any work. So, knowing what size they are is pretty important to me.

Bentley is a little light in this area, but I found this guy on ebay that has parts lists for (he claims) all vehicles. I just ordered one for my 90 Vanagon, which was only a few bucks, so I'll see how specific it is.

Usual disclaimer. No affiliation or endorsement of this guy or his products. http://stores.ebay.com/Tiresmokin-Deals-Ltd Do a search on his ebay store for 'Vanagon'.
