The only ones I know of are the genuine Mercury items.
The've a "bastard" thread, which makes it OK to charge OTT money for.

I have always used M14 bolts and never had a problem, very snug fit in the Merc saddle holes

I know this is a long way away from most of you, but here is another source for a lot of mercury stuff and the search is easier to use if you are not quite sure what you are looking for.
