A bolt wouldn't work and i couldn't find one at the autoparts store, they had some universal ones but didn't work for me. Junkyard would be your best bet, i ended up finding one in another radiator laying around the shop good luck though

If you have the polished Koyo unit with the black phillips head screw type match it up with a generic Subaru plastic type at the auto parts store. The one I found to fit "Help brand" was white plastic and had a wing nut type end and was labeled for Subaru vehicles.
