I was putting the clutch in today and lost one of the pressure plate bolts. I used a bolt that had the same thread as the other pressure plate bolts and torqued everything down. I should be fine right. I used thread locker on the bolt
thanks
 
The heads on the bolts are a little thinner then a typical bolt. This is because when the throw out bearing disengages the clutch the fingers go towards the flywheel. I would do a visual check to make sure there will not be any interference. You may have to grind the head of the bolt down or find the correct bolt.
 
I would order one from the dealer. I work on cars all day everyday, and I believe perfection makes me more money although sometimes it may be unneeded it still can't bite me in the ass if I do it right.
