part number for MAP retaining bolt

What is the correct part number for the single gold-colored bolt that holds the MAP sensor bracket to the black plastic air horn (at the very front of the engine compartment)?

I would settle for knowing the specs for a generic replacement bolt - I'm not keen to test-fit back and forth from the hardware store to the car...

I've searched but can't find an exploded drawing with the correct part number. When I ordered parts last week I guessed and ordered a bolt that was too small...

Courtesy nissan in Texas often has the parts numbers.

Are you really going to order a bolt by its part number?

I might.

What I really want is to replace the zip tie that's holding the MAP sensor to the air horn with the correct bolt.

Courtesy Nissan's parts diagrams are the same as the others I found. They do not show the MAP/air horn attachment point.

The bolt that holds the MAP sensor to its bracket is different than the bolt I'm looking for (that holds the bracket to the air horn).

Nothing wrong with a zip tie. Mine has been there for years.

Frankly, I don't know where it is supposed to go.

Do you have a photo of its proper location?

This photo shows the MAP sensor in its correct location - bolted to the top of the "air horn" (black plastic shroud that collects incoming air and routes it to the air box).

It's _not_:

0812061628 (VTC Solenoid Bolt) - too small.

Now I can't even find where I found that wrong number at...

nobody?

you guys are all running cone filters - you no longer have the black plastic air intake on your car at all

I called SW Infinti and have been emailing one of their guys. Their exploded parts diagram doesn't show the bolt in question - they are not going to be able to help.

Every other bolt on this car seems be special in some way - and every problem I've had with this car has been the result of somebody trying to cheap out and not use the factory part.

You really needed help to figure this out? We have alot of yards in Houston but the 4th Gen population is getting pretty scarce...

M6x1.00 thread pitch. 15-20mm should be long enough.
