recommendations...

either 1. order it from the dealer, if it's on the car they can get it
(basically)

or. 2. buy a metric tap and die set, get a 40 mm bolt, turn the die onto
it backwards, cut off the bolt at 35 mm, grind or file off the burrs,
and then cut the threads clean by turning the die back off it.
