Steering Column Parts Help!!

I was putting my steering wheel back on and like a dummy I stripped the bolts that I circled. If anybody has the part number for them that would be great so I can buy some more or if anybody has some I can buy that would be awesome. Thanks!

Something I've noticed, and this seems true all over the car, is the lack of lead in chamfer to threaded holes. To avoid cross threading like this I learned to carefully thread every fastener carefully by hand until at least three threads are engaged. If the fastener stiffens up during hand threading chances are the fastener is cross threaded. Back off and carefully try again.

Yeah I can't believe i did it. The only reason I did was because they fought me the whole way out so I figured they would going in too. And they did. But it just tore them up. I ended up having to pull some out of a eclipse at a junk yard. Also for anybody else this happens to the part number is ms240127. And then I had to re thread it with a tap and be very careful putting them back in haha!
