Anybody have the size / measurements of the battery clamp bolts?.....would rather find them at a hardware store versus having my local Toyota telling me they have to order them. TIA

I'm unable to get the securing bolts / nuts unfastened and attempt a measurement this is why I'm posting the above question. TIA

I replaced the whole clamp recently. They don't list just the bolt, so you'd have to improvise at the hardware store. I'm a big fan of OEM parts, even if I have to wait a few days.

edit: I'd wager it's a 6mm bolt, square head and square nut.

Thank you for responding cranky!. I went ahead and improvised. Was going to replace the clamp as well,but, THAT bolt / nut wouldn't loosen either. : )

Order native fasteners; why invent and invent something when everything has already been created? This is the best and most reliable option. The battery, too, picks up a regular one, that is, the one recommended by the manufacturer. I advise you to buy Japanese; it will work more.
It is necessary to mount the battery so that it does not hit the headlight when braking and does not jump. I usually buy the necessary parts at scrooz.com.au (https://www.scrooz.com.au/nuts-and-bolts/). There is a large selection of bolts and fasteners.
If you think you can't handle the installation yourself, it's better to contact a specialist.
