Skid Plate Bolts?
I was getting my oil service and the mechanic noticed that 90% of my skid plate bolts are missing.
Then, I called Audi parts store to see how much they cost, and they quoted $4.99 per each!! How many do I need in order to hold the skid plate tightly?
Thanks for your help.

What model/year do you have?? A little info would help!
And, when you say "skid plate" are you referring to the "belly pan" that covers the bottom of the engine compartment?

You can live without some of them. Use your judgment.
Like if you were missing one in a wheel well, it probably would not matter, but I would want all the ones along the rear edge. Without that secured, it tends to sag and could get hung up.
