Need help finding seat mount plug screw.

Truck we bought was originally a bucket seat truck, unfortunately PO pulled the buckets before we bought it. I found a super clean bucket seat we are going to put in and run for now. I thought the bench bolted directly in the same mounting holes as the buckets but found that not to be true. There are different holes for each seat type, with one set being plugged with large Philips head screws. Going from bench to bucket I would have extra Philips "plug" screws.But going from bucket to bench I am short. I can't find them listed on any of the normal truck supply catalogs, plus I hoped I could just get them from a fastener house maybe cheaper.

Screws a 5/16-18 x 3/4 lg with an extra large diameter (0.685") philips head.
Where can I get these?

How many do you need. I have several spares.
Just Pay the shipping and the screws are free.

Looks like Rick has some for you.

I always look to Fastenal first when looking for hardware.

Not the correct picture in the link

Link:https://www.fastenal.com/products/details/29238

This may help on other stuff.

Is this true, my truck had no evidence of unused mounting hole. Other than the ones crudely punched through the floor for some type of non original seat. No backing plate under the non factory holes

Yep, that is exactly what I found in my originally equipped with buckets 1969 C20. Looking at the factory backing plates, that have ALL the welded on square nuts on the same backing plates, I would be suprised if they weren't on all the trucks.
