It's a fairly simple screw, so it wouldn't be a whole lot to lathe out spares.

Interesting, they must have changed the mounting for the borad at some point. Ie mine slips on to a threaded shaft and then you put the nut on, which would be easier than holding the board and fishing around for a blind hole to screw the bolt in to.
I do have some of those butterfly bolts about the carrier, can't remember where they sit right now. Thanks Rob.
