Roof rail bolt size

I was looking to bodge a couple of fixings over the front end to secure a tarp for the weekend. I prised out the plastic plug, (destroying it in the process), that sits over the driver and front passenger doors only to discover that none of the bolts I have fit. Can you tell me the bolt size and thread I need or even better the LR part number?

Its a bit of an issue because now there's nothing holding the trim in place.

Why do I do these things the day before I'm going some where? Embarassed

 If we weren't supposed to eat meat why did God make animals taste so good?

M6 taper to fully remove the plastic.

Then use M6x16 INOX bols + washers to close the fixing holes. This prevent rust/oxidation and waste.
