Those are 8mm 1.25. which is just a course thread 8mm.
1/2" to 3/4" long is good enough.

got the lower engine skid plate on today. ED7 thanks for the help with the bolt size!
one thing i noticed all ready is it must be working to keep drag down.
ever since i had my v70 running shell gas the computer tells me 27.8mpg.. just on the ride home with the new lower skid plate installed its showing 28 now. very cool.. little portection for the alloy oil pan, less drag and better mpg!
