Today I decided to buy some brake pads and new rotors for my eclipse. I have a 2001 Eclipse GT Spyder.

While driving around 80-90 mph and hitting the brakes the steering wheel shakes really bad. So I thought I needed rotors. Anyways. I went and bought some new ones. I take the wheel off and take the caliper off. Then I notice the two little bolts that hold the rotor on aren't even in. Apparently the person who changed the stuff before forgot to put them on. I went to several part stores and they're all telling me to go to a mitsubishi dealer. I called and they say it'll take a week+ to get them. Does anybody know of a site where I can get these two little bolts that holds the rotor on.. I'd like to get this fixed asap. Thank you!

That page has the bolt size you need... Id imagine you could find one somewhere at maybe even like Home Depot ot Lowes or something.

thanks... I tried home depot and another store. They have the correct size but we can't find the ones with a beveled head... so it'll go flush with the rotor. I'll continue looking though! If anyone wants to sell me some of these, leave a message, lol..
