Last night I installed a new gasket on my shifter, it's the red one in this pic:

and the 4 bolts were not holding the plate all the way, there was a 1-2 mm gap I could push down on and it would spring back up when I let go.

I just kept torquing the bolts but the gap wouldn't close, one bolt tore halfway through but luckily I got it out and the rest were stripping/snapping as well.

Are these the right bolts?

For clarity here's where they are going.

No those are the one for the boot. The ones you are looking for only have maybe a little more than a cm of threads.

Awesome thanks man. Seems like I lost the set of bolts that actually go there so I wasn't sure if they were right.
