If it's the bolt I think you mean (attaches top plate to car body) they're M10x35.  Parts diagram HERE.

Brilliant. Thanks a million. 

Yes it's the bolts that attach the shock to the body of the car at the top. Mine are seized. I managed to cut the head off 1 of them with a small grinder but can't reach the other with the grinder. Might have to drill it out.
