They are 12+ inches long 3/8 or 10mm. I can sell you a pair, 20 bucks shipped for 2. Comes with nylock nuts.
Cool.

I put the OEM guards on a few years ago and the bolts that came with them weren't just right.  I had to use the longest bolt that came with them and the longest of the original bolts so you probably only need one new bolt.  Others here have done the same.
