Default convertible top bolts

Does anyone know where I can get a bolt for the mechanical arms that put up the
convertible top?

This is a un-threaded bolt with a pin in the other side. it connects 2 of the mechanical
arm pieces together. Mine sheared off and now the top doesn't go down/up correctly.

I'm not talking J hooks or locators. These bolts are part of the top mechanism itself.

Thanks!

OUCH!! How the heck did you shear those off?!!

Anyway...best guess would be Ford dealer or junk yard. I don't think you'll find it anywhere else.
