Take one of the bolts with you to the auto parts store, they can fix you up with a drill & a tap (and replacement bolts, too.) You didn't overdrill the holes (drill the holes larger than the oem bolts?) If so, you'll need to thread the holes larger and go with an appropriate oversized bolt for those holes.
