Hello... Sorry if this seems like a stupid question. I Looked around on this site and couldn't find any info> Can someone tell me the correct size for the 4 bolts that mount the rear decklid to the hinges? 8MM? 7MM? Having a difficult time with fitment? Original bolts not included by the Previous owner. Thanks in advance for any assistance

#1 used bolt on VWs...length is only difference

There are a few spots that use 7mm, like the dust shields on front disk brakes
