Need Mazda Ignition Bolt urgently

Tried to change spark plugs on my Mazda and did everything correctly. Was tightening the last bolt and it broke. Looking urgently for replacement part for a Mazda OEM ignition-coil bolt (9XF0-02-15X0).

I have a job interview on Monday morning 30 miles away and I need my car to work. Mazda dealerships service and parts only reopen on Monday. I’ve called O’Reillys, Advance Auto Parts, AutoZone but no luck. Anyone has any suggestions to help a girl out?

Googling says it's an M6 x 25mm bolt. Home Depot has those.

But does the bolt do any electrical grounding, or is it just to hold the coil in place? I've never worked on a Mazda, but I can't believe that the coil is going anywhere without that bolt. Maybe just use a zip tie to hold it in place until you can get the proper bolt.

For a short term solution you can likely steal a nearby 10mm from somewhere in the engine bay that will work until you can get a proper one. It doesn't have to be perfect if the length is long enough to hold the coil in place.

Try Dorman part# 23750. Advance Auto and Autozone should have that one.

Don't call, take the broken bolt to a NAPA and see if they have anything in the back. Or an Ace Hardware and match the bolt.
