Default Need to replace all header bolts..

I noticed some of my bolts were coming out on the passenger side and had a small exhaust leak. I checked the bolts and they are bent a lil and now I want to replace all of them. Which ones do I buy if anyone can help?

I checked ws6 store and tsp but want to make sure I'm getting the right ones.

**Also for the passenger, what is the easiest way to remove the back bolts?

Not sure on the bolts. I am still using the lock ones, without the locks, as I've never had them back out, after checking them a few hundred miles after a header install. The stock ones are just as good.

I used a 11 mm with a swivel, extention, and a socket wrench with a long handle, for leverage.
