Rusted exhaust tip bolts

Just as a tip if anyone needs help in the future:

When installing my OEM kit I was removing the flange bolts that hold the exhaust tips in and busted the head off the bolt. The bolt head and the hole in the tip were rusted pretty bad and didn't want to come off. I highly suggest putting some WD40 on there before you take them off so you don't end up like me.

I headed out to home depot today and found a perfect fit, in case anyone ever has this problem here's what the packaging says:

Hex Bolt (Pack of 2)
6mm x 10 x 16mm

UPC 0-30699-35768-0

I've always used anti-seize on any bolts/threads that exposed to high temp and possible of rusting or hard to remove. I use it on spark plugs, exhaust bolts, wheel studs, manifold mounting studs. etc.
