All,
I still struggle with hardware provided by F5. Latest is finding hood hinge fasteners in a small box with 2 different labels and not on inventory, so I missed it completely and went to Mcmaster to get what I needed-Maybe save someone the trouble if you are at the point of doing the hood hinges.

Now, looking for a nice bag of fasteners for seat belts-According to the manual. So, reviewed inventory, not called out there, I can not find anything like it in my remaining boxes, any idea or am I back to ACE. So as with most missing hardware I most likely will source elsewhere but if you have any recent dealings and found that bag somewhere, let me know.

I cannot help with your hardware issues, I had similar ones and bought a lot of hardware from boltdepot.com. For me, identifying and finding the proper hardware was probably the second most frustrating part of the build, right after the process of getting the complete car legal.
Good luck

My seatbelt hardware was in the boxes with the seatbelts themselves.

Like BornWest said, all of the seatbelt hardware is in the Simpson boxes.

Thanks for the info, I do have a bag of 1/2 inch washers, bag of 1/2-13 nylock nuts and a bag of 1/2-13 bolts from the general fastener pack so I will run with these, I was expecting a single pack with everything in it.

Those are probably the ones for the windshield.

There is 12 in the bag, so 8 for the belts and 4 for wind shield!

Except the belts take 10! Five each set...2 for the lap belts..2 for the shoulders...1 for the sub strap. Every one that I've done has had the windshield bolts in it's box.
