Hollow bolts for handlebar wiring?

I bought these handlebars for my 883C: http://www.biltwellinc.com/index.php...ct_detail&p=56 and I'm looking for some hollow bolts so that I can route my wiring internally. Anyone know where I can get some online? I live in Honolulu, so even better if you know where I can go locally.

Never heard of hollow bolts. If they are dimpled/cut for internal wiring then you route it inside the bars and out the portion that clamps to the bars. Pretty straight forward

They are dimpled, but not drilled for internal wiring. I drilled holes in the dimples myself. I read about some people using hollow bolts for their setup, but none that were 1/2" x 13 TPI. I may end up having to cut a hole in the cross bar, which wont look as nice :/
