Default Fixings

I have a modern framed pan head and am missing a few non vital bolts - cable mounting etc. Here in the UK just about everything is metric size and thread, are most bolts on a USA machine going to be UNC ?
Thanks- Nick

Button head at top of forks, same into fender fixing hole on front fork leg and also the threaded rod that goes through the rear brake master cylinder to support the right foot peg.

These people supply stainless UNC / UNF fasteners. They're on ebay as well if you look for kayfast1. You will need to know the size and pitch of the thread though.
