Stillen catback issues

ok well my dad went ahead order the stillen catback for his car, it got to us, but it was missing one of the bolts in the package, the other one he found on the floor of our stairs up to our condo, but anyone have an idea where i can pick up that style botl (M10 1.25x30mm) its also titanuim but i dont know if i need to get another titanuim one, but id like to b/c its my dad and i wanna do it 100% right

and also, whats the best way to get the muffler on without using a lift, i cant seem to find a way to jack it up high enough, the jack points on these cars are odd, and there only like one its not cool at all

I had to use a lift to get the muffler out.... even if I found a way to drag and scrap it out, there was no way I was gonna do the same to get the new one on.... I heard you can somewhat take apart some of the suspension to get it out, but I didn't bother, just took it to someplace and borrowed a lift for 30 mins....

I had to put some 2x4 under my jack to get it high enough to clear the rear axel. Be careful if you do that or just bring it to a shop.
